When mine started I was worried to death and it was constant for about a week or so. Within minutes of waking up it was there. During the course of the day I started fretting more and more and ended up on the verge of tears with it. In all I think I had it constantly for about a fortnight and now just get it now and again.
It was reading on here that it could be anxiety related that calmed it down funnily enough. Up to that point no-one could convince me it was anxiety. All I could imagine was an actual lump and therefore cancer.
If your doctor's felt your neck and can't feel anything, I'd take a lot of comfort from that. I know it's difficult to imagine them seeing down your throat but the dr would be able to feel something out of the ordinary if it was something more serious.
The other thing that makes me think your's is v likely to be anxiety is that you mentioned you can eat and drink fine and if anything it tends to be better. I think the thing that indicates something more serious is when you can't eat because your food sticks on the way down and something's physically blocking it. Found this out whilst googling myself into a terrified frenzy when I started with it.
I really do think it's anxiety related but you've done right seeing the Dr.
