To decrease the mucus production you can stop drinking milk.  Be sure you replace your calcium and vitamin D through foods and/or supplements.  I'd ask for an upper endoscopy.  That's where you have an office procedure where they put an endoscope down your throat to examine your esophagus and down into your stomach.  With that instrument they can examine your throat thoroughly and see if you have any growths such as polyps.
