I'm basically semi-congested all the time. Always sniffly, nasal sinuses always at least partially blocked, throat always phlegmy/needing to be constantly cleared. Have been like this as long as I can remember. I have temporomandibular disorder (my jaw pops/snaps and locks now and then--no pain, though), so I wonder if that's to blame since I think it can affect the sinuses.
The sinus issue has never been diagnosed because I've never sought help for it, I just figure it's something I have to live with, and relatively minor compared to my other issues.
(I just looked further at the link above and it says there's often an association between TMD and interstitial cystitis. Did not know that. o.o )
