Is this LPR?

I'll start out by listing my symptoms which Ive had for about a month.
* phlegm in throat, esp. after eating. It really shows up after eating something like chocolate (postnasal drip).
When I wake up in the morning it is esp. bad.
* re-occuring bouts of constipation- i will eventually go to the BR after 2/3 days; when i was going to the BR is was watery (diahrrea like), but it is no longer like this
* bloated feeling (only felt this a few times)
*white coated tongue with little red dots toward the tip. They are not bumps and do not hurt or interfere with eating. I've read that this could be a sign of stomach problems?
*red throat. it dosen't hurt however.
*roof of mouth is white with red streaks
*nausea feeling (again, not always there)

What do you think? Is it? or isn't it? Please help me. And on more question, will LPR go away on its own?

  Hi and welcome to the GERD forum.

The above posters symptoms do sound like LPR and  with PND getting on a histamine blocker is better then using a PPI med....since we tend to over produce histamine which causes the PND, ,that leads to the GERD and IBS issues.....

Do see a Dr and do look to your families medical history.
