bad breath, please help

Hi everyone, i have suffered with this condition for years now. My oral hygiene is good, i brush my tounge, brush teeth twice a day, floss and after many mouthwashes am currently trying hydrogen peroxide which seems to make my mouth more dry.
The doctors dont seem to want to know, to the point that they are saying its a mental condition! try telling others this!
I produce a unusual amount of clear, thick mucus both through my nose and from my chest. This again has tried to be treated with anti-histamine tablets and various nasal sprays but to no outcome. A test on my sinuses was clear.
The depression, anxiety i live with on a daily basis is crazy. People who dont have the condition might laugh, but it really is getting me down.
I have read on a website about pro-biotics, flora? but i dunno if this will be available in England?
Anyhow all help much appreciated, take care ppl.

You probably have considered the possibility of gastric problems. The other possibility is the tonsillar area.Have you consulted an oral pathologist. They can be located at teaching hospitals and dental schools.
