    I get this when stressed caused by anxiety as well

    It won't cause a stroke

    Calm deep breathes and it will pass soon I promise

    Your throat will not close up , doesnt even happen with a stroke . Its a common anxiety symptom one of the horrible ones im afraid. Just keep thinking it will not harm you and breath through it , It will pass x

    It could just be GLobus too, thats where your throat feels constricted, but your airways are fine and it goes when you eat. If it is, its just where the muscle in your neck tightens, but it goes with time.
