I have a hiatus hernia and suffer from GERD. I spit blood almost every morning as a matter of routine.
Every day I eat antacid tablets. I have also suffered from esophagus restriction from time to time (boiled eggs or plain boiled rice seems to cause that effect).
But that's not the pressing problem.
I am increasingly congested but find it difficult to eject mucus/phlegm due to a gag reflex. Every time I get mucus/phlegm in my throat, I want to vomit but the swallow reflex kicks in.
My question:- is there a decongestant which does not incorporate an expectorant?
