I have had problems with my throat for about 9 months now. It often feels like I am swallowing a golf ball. Kind of a lump in the throat. My voice is horse and my ability to sing has gone out the window. I do have re-flux and have been on omeprozole for 10 years or so. I had a scope of my throat in july where he saw evidence of reflux and he stretched my throat, then an ultrasound of my thyroid in December, and I saw a ENT that looked into my throat and at my vocal cords. Everything checked out ok. However I continue to have this lump in my throat and a horse throat. The only other things I have noticed is excessive night sweats, in the past has not a problem as long as I use my estrogen patch but that isn t helping now. I have also noticed that my face gets really red and my head feels like it is going to explode. I have also noticed some strange heart beats. I m sure some of this is not related but I am trying to cover everything that seems different for me.
