Continue using the nasal spray, it may help slow the amount of mucus but there may still be sinus drainage or chronic infections in the sinuses.  Overtime the nasal spray may help clear it all up.  

Also try antihisatmines, it may be allergy related and that show help if it is.

Do you have problems with breathing through your nose  or sinuses?  Post-nasal drip and chronic sinutitis could be affecting your throat through the drainage of infected pus.  

There always is the possibility of false negative tests - try zantac or pepcid OTC (or whatever is available) and see if they help
