Thanks for the comments Speranza and Keaw and sorry it has taken so long to reply...

I still have the funny squeaking/squelching sound every time I swallow and if anything it seems to be getting worse. I persevered with the lansoprazole for while but they made no difference. I have since also been scoped which showed nothing abnormal.

I've sort of put it down to me constantly feeling my throat and managing to exercise my throat muscles to the extent they have gotten stronger (and squeaky). However I do stIll worry about my glands. I'm sure they haven't gotten bigger since my last post but I have picked up a fifth lump about 4mm but I try and put them down to Speranza symptom distortion theory and it's only days of peak anxiety to they get me down.

I hope you have rid yourself of globus in the meantime...
