I have had a sensation of a lump in my throat for about 2 weeks now, and have had swelling on the right side of my neck (eustacian tube maybe?) for quite some time. When I mentioned the feeling in my throat to my sister, she said she had a similar sensation and was diagnosed with reflux - so seeking the advice of this forum. I did have frequent heartburn when I was pregnant, and also a bout of severe hearburn some years ago that I took Prevacid for.
About 3 months ago I started taking Levothyroxin for a thyroid condition and last week I also started taking Celexa for anxiety/depression. Not sure if either of those meds would cause this.
I also have mild asthma and have been having more issues with my breathing - have to take deep breaths to feel satisfied. The reason I am posting here is that I am just trying to put pieces of the puzzle together - seems weird to have many vague simptoms and have them not be interconnected. Anyone think this could be a reflux issue? Or perhaps any other ideas?
I appreciate your input!!
