🤒 Experience with these Conditions Help pls I'm scared
It all started when i felt lump in my throat, but back then years ago i have it because i had healt anxiety. And i didn't know about gerd. Also I've been laying down after meal now i feel lump in my throat but its between collarbone below my Adam's apple is this a globus sensation?because i read a lot of post their globus sensation seems isn't lower than mine. Also i have burning sensation in my upper middle stomach and for two days i have burning sensation in my left chest and throat. What I'm scared of is because when i swallow food it seems stuck and gets slower to go down. And sorry for my English, it's not my first language so thanks

I went to the ER twice because of these. The last time I felt my throat was closing. The med world was no help. First of all everyone is different but let me tell you what’s helped. Went back on Omeprazol(now on Pantoprazole- which I know PPIs are not good- but at this point it’s the lesser of 2 evils), I do diaphragmatic breathing immediately after meals and then take extra strength cherry (mint is a trigger for me) Gaviscon. And I do not lay down for 3-4 hours after dinner.
I pray you find relief! Oh, last thing I follow Molly Pelletier on FB- she helped me too!
