Hi, I am knew to your group and my name is Steph. I was reading a few
of the posts and so see I am not the only one suffering so horribly.
However I never have heard of a problem "quite" like mine before so I
will discribe it and if anyone else has had this same issue and found
relief and the cause please let me know.

I'm almost 63 and have been suffering from severe systemic candida which
I was never able to get rid of and mycoplasmosis which I caught from
some pigeons someone sent me about 25 years ago. I was never able to
get rid of that either, but even through all of that I never had this
weird sinus problem that keeps me from rest day and night. I just
developed that issue about three months ago.

I am on a permanent diet of no dairy, sugar, processed foods, or hard to
digest meat and stuck to it very well for about the last 8 years. Then
I got very deficient and so started juicing greens and carrots which did
OK with me and started eating all the fresh fruit I wanted. I couldn't
get rid of the candida anyway, and these things did not seem to make me
any worse.

Well one day about three months ago I blew it bad and started gorging on
corn curls and pizza--very addictive foods for carb cravers LOL. I
only did this for about three days and WHAMO this sinus condition
started up and even though I quit doing this never to do it again, the
condition has stayed and gotton worse.

Has anyone ever had just very clear coloured slime with bubbles in it of
all sizes, tons of tiny ones with a few larger ones almost pea size that
is constantly there? It is very thick and dry and when I tried to pop
one of the large bubbles just out of curiosity, it would not pop. Lo
and behold it was a solid cystal clear mass of slime!!! I have to wipe
my throat (no gag mechanism left anymore) with kleenex day and night and
use Q-tips to go up the back of my throat up towards my nasal passages
to get the slime and bubbles out so I can get just about 60 seconds of
releif from a constant crawling sensation caused by the bubbles every
time I swallow. I go through a LARGE box of keenex daily just wipeing
the back of my throat and about 50 Q-tips per day and do this all night
long with just some sleep in between. Constantly trying to clear my
throat and gargling up in the sink forcefully and loudly because it is
so thick it won/t break loose. This has alienated my family and I live
alone as my hubby passed away over a year ago.

Going shopping is torment because I have to keep swallowing this crap
and can hardly wait to get done and get to my car so I can once again
wipe my throat for another minute of releif. If I vomit, I have had
it string down all the way to the ground five feet and not break loose.
Can't sling it as it would stick to my finger but have to wipe it off
with a paper towel.
Usually when I open my mouth and look in, the slime strings from the
roof of my mouth down to my bottom jaw exactly like one of those nasy
comodo dragons you see on TV.

Such torment and really demonic. It seems now because I goofed up, I
can no longer tolerate any fruit, natural carbs.such as beans etc..
without it getting much worse where I end up struggling to clear my
throat all night long with no sleep.

Does this type of sinus or slime with bubbles in it, sound familiar to
anyone else on this group? Does anyone know what to do to help get
rid of this? The slime is always very clear and shines like formica,
so there seems to be no infection responsible.
