Anyone have Laryngeal Sensory Neuropathy?

Hello. I've had chronic throat clearing for 50 years. I was diagnosed with Reflux 20 years ago and prescribed, at the time, aciphex. I took it and found no relief. I was switched to Omeprazole about 15 years ago. No relief. My new GP, suggested laryngeal geal hypersensitivity. He prescribed me Pregabalin, 75 mg, twice a day. The difference is night and day. I still have triggers, tomato, tomato sauce, chocolate, caffeine, onions and garlic. It's not a "cure", bit it is a great treatment. I've been taking it for over a year now and I'm very pleased.

@bpske As a fellow sufferer, I am happy to hear that you have found something that works for you. Have you noticed any side effects from the Pregabalin? I am going to look into it. Thank you for posting this.

@bpske do you take Pregabalin all the time, everyday? Are there times when your LSN subsides and you stop the Pregabalin? My LSN usually lasts for 2-3 months, then subsides until the next cold, and starts up again. I’d like to try using Pregabalin during an acute phase only, but unsure if you can use it this way?
