Globus sensation: Anyone else have a lump feeling in their throat?

Posted by Karen @fue, Apr 23, 2022

As far as I know I am not anxious about anything. I am retired. I don't have too much pain from my polyneuropathy at the moment. However, I do seem to suffer from a globus a lot of the time. Is this common with anyone else please?

@gis58 I’m experiencingglobus right now and anxiety may have made it worse. I’m taking an anti-anxiety med which helps a lot.

Thank you very much for your reply. I have an appointment with my doctor soon, so hopefully I can then follow the same route

Very interesting. Thank you for this info. I would appreciate an update in another 30 days as to whether or not the globus feeling has returned.

@eileen206 I have globus also but as a result of choking on a sunflower seed several weeks ago. I had an MRI but it showed nothing. My doc gave me liquid prednisone and it helped for a few days but didn’t last.
I’m curious also about the Prilosec working for you. I sure hope it does! I’m going to talk to my doc about it.
Thank you and good luck.
