Hello,
I think it might be a case of possible strep throat. Need to run throat swab culture and sensitivity testing together with thyroid function test. Upper endoscopy to consider if nothing is found in the above mentioned tests. This is to rule out possible GERD.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Albana Sejdini, General & Family Physician
