Hi guys I’m 36 and been suffering with anxiety and depression for 20 years over the past 6 months things have been getting lots better with having different therapy’s And my family and friends been very supportive what I was wondering is I started with swallow problem a few months back witch have eased over time due to the anxiety I’m guessing but iv been struggling with really bad coughing up gunk and this has been going on months iv cut down on smoking to try and help don’t drink alcohol but can not seam to get any help with it even more so now with what’s going on in the world it’s that thick I some time find it hard to swallow could this be the anxiety or some thing else just wondering if anyone else has had similar problems thanks stay safe people

Hi @scotty1983. I'm afraid as we're not medically trained here, we're unable to advise, but it definitely sounds like something you should speak to your GP about.
Are you able to get a GP appointment at the moment?0
