Brief Answer:
If EGD within normal limit then no need to worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi Mam,
I have gone through your query; and according to your description if you found nothing in esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) then there is no need to worry.

For your kind information base of epiglottis and other structure are clearly visible in the initial step of this procedure.

I personally advised to go for the routine haematological, blood sugar and thyroid profile test if you don't have.

Thanks
