I've been experiencing excessive thick bubbly mucous and saliva, choking on it if I don't spit it out, a strange taste in my mouth, bad breath, a white coated tongue, burning sensation, a fuzzy feeling extending down my throat, substances sticking to my tongue, daily vomiting, loss of appetite, weight loss (52 pounds), sore taste buds, and swollen areas at the back of my tongue. I've lost my appetite and am not feeling sick, but I did take antibiotics a month ago for a possible sinus infection with no improvement. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?
