Hi Nautica-
This could just be a temproary exacerbation of your allergies, especially through the summer. Did you bring it up with your doctor when you saw him? Not sure where you live, but I had a more -than- usual "phlegmy" summer here in Los Angeles (I too am mildly allergic.... to cats, certain grasses, and whatever else grows here in La-La Land (which is just about everything!). If you are in Southern California I know that smog was at its worst in a decade over the summer.
Obviously, if you smoke, that, plus allergies just makes any new sensitivity worse. Have you tried any allergy meds from your doctor? I used Allegra (NON-D) since I didn't need a decongestant, I just wanted to dry up the phlegm.... and it seemed to help..
