It started back in 2017, a relentless feeling of someone physically strangling me/crushing my trachea. NOT an interior feeling like something IN my throat, but more exterior. It was 24/7 non stop. I have had a FULL work up to rule out acid reflux. I was first diagnosed with LPR, put on PPI that did nothing for 6 months. Only to find out by a gastrointerologist I have no reflux conditions. I feel like I have had every work up and test done under the sun. Other symptoms that were occurring alongside my globus gradually went away over a yrs time, but the globus remained. Then poof, mid 2019 it completely disappeared and remained "history" until April 2021 when it came back. I have been suffering with this thing since then. I am feeling rather hopeless, depressed and I have lost majority that I had gained in the yr it was gone. I have a hard time believing it's due to anxiety/all in my head since it had disappeared then reappeared without any stressors, in fact it reappeared when I was at a very happy moment in my life. If anyone else has experienced this and has found an answer or treatment please help me? Its debilitating my life. Turning 31 this June if age helps. I have tried to find specialist for my condition with 1 result found in New York, but I live in Midwest. If an ENT happens to read this plea for help, please help me. I'm at my wits end. Begging for help at this point.
