Re: Throat cancer worries
Ahoy there PHR!
you're talking to the master of silent reflux so let me try and offer my advice, i have basically the same symptoms as you, food goes down and it either tries to come back up or just flat out stays where it is until it digests, its darn uncomfortable and can feel almost like you want to gag, i get horrific lump feelings and i'm the hugest worrier about choking i ever met, i've never had a scope yet but i'm seeing a gastro expert in January so i should be getting a barium then, i've actually always had bad acid since i can remember but i only recently got the food issues about last February? (which was coincidentally when my anxiety started flaring up) my doctor put it down to acid reflux although he's suspecting i may have a gastro problem where i can't digest things easily(hence why i'm meeting a gastro expert on the 17th) digesting food has been really sucky since i went downhill with eating i only ate like once a day and i had to work myself back up however thanks to the holidays i'm failing again pretty hard.
especially considering your symptoms i would put it down to silent reflux, quite harmless(though my brain doesn't quite get that) but really irritating, if your doctor doesn't see an issue then i'm really certain you have nothing to worry about x
