Terrible odor from throat and nose

I have had a problem for quite some time with an odor coming from my nose and throat.  It is so bad I am scared to talk to anybody.  Luckily noone has commented on it but I am sure that they notice.  It is not bad breath it is definitely coming from the throat or the nose.  Does anyone have this?  Who do you see for it?  and ENT doc?  I scheduled an appt. for next week but am so embarrassed to even mention this to him - do you think he's heard this before?

Hi dont be embarrassed, people everywhere need things taken care of.  You could possibliy have a sinus infection which can cause the stronger odors.  Also, sometimes the problems can arise from the stomach causing the odor problem especially in the mouth.  If you dont do this try brushing your tongue all the way in the back and front it makes you gag but most of the time that can help.  Wish you well at the doctors.
