Ive been dealing with varying reflux symptoms on and off for around 7 years during which time I've been on a low dose PPI daily (20mg). Over those years, I've seen 3 gastroenterologists and had 2 endoscopies the last of which was 3 years ago, all normal.
The last 8 months though I've had a mild burning sensation at the back of my nose and a rough feeling throat ... Almost like I could clear my throat. Another ppi dose doesn't improve it. I seen my GP again who looked up my nose and back of throat who said he couldn't see anything and told me to try a Vicks nasal inhaler but it doesn't do anything.
I seen a gastro doc privately a few months back but he just seemed to dismiss me and felt rushed.
I have a wedding coming up and started a new job so my stress is high at the moment.
Can all this be stress/anxiety? Does anyone have similar experiences especially with the LPR type symptoms? It's a daily struggle. :(
Thanks.
