Back in July I had a strange feeling of something stuck in my throat and upper stomach pain along with upper chest pain. It slowly got worse and i went into a whole anxiety attack bc of this issue. I went to the ER and they looked at me like i was crazy. sent me home with anxiety meds and said it was a sore throat, which yes the anxiety was true but still they didnt do much when it came to looking at my throat. I have anxiety when it comes to my health. I feared my throat closing up and not being able to breath. The anxiety attack didnt calm till i went to an ear, nose and throat specialist. He did a physical exam and said i looked fine but based off my symptoms he said i may have GERD so he gave me medicine to help and ran some blood work. a week later i went back and the feeling hadnt gone away. Based on my blood results he said i was fine and so he said it could be allergies. he gave me an allergy medicine and said if it didnt get better to come back in 2 weeks to do an endoscopy. allergy meds also didnt do much. 3 weeks later and i havent gone back. i dont know if its even worth doing an endoscopy and it be nothing. slowly the sensation in my throat is lessening which i see as a big yay but today i started with inner ear pain and a mild headache in the lower back of my head. i also now have some blisters in the back of my throat but im thinking those are from a cold that was going around my household. for a week i had runny nose and a cough but those have gone away just not the blisters. Not sure if i should worry or not. I also have bad anxiety like mentioned above so im thinking this could also be anxiety related so i dont want to go insane running tests and in the end everything be nothing. some days its worse then others when it comes to the throat sensation and like i said before its slowly going away but now the new symptoms are what have me worried. could the throat sensation be going away only to cause worse problems?
