lump sensation in my throat

[Molly3 495]

I went to the ER yesterday, I had massive burning in my chest & my stomach was achy. Blood work came back fine & they had me drink a GI cocktail & they put some Reglan & pain killer in my IV......lo & behold, my lump in the throat went away for the 5hrs I was there! My lump is definitely heartburn/reflux related & it totally sucks!

Yes indeedy... I'm back to yoghurt and all things boring today as a consequence of last nights activities... I can't do another day like yesterday. It is categorically, a very miserable experience. x

UH OH, Madam Reverie! Are you currently on a PPI?

I will be getting my tonsils taken out tomorrow so, I will be forced to liquids & very bland foods for quite some time......This may be a very good thing!

[Madam Reverie 2,958]

I was issued PPI, yes. Except, I'd gone three days without it and was tickety-boo, naively thinking I'd be fine. Sadly, something hit me badly yesterday and took me out till 5am. Consequently, when I opened my eyes this morning, the first thing that went down my throat was a PPI. I'm going to do everything in my power to avoid having that again... Nasty. Best of luck for your tonsillectomy tomorrow. We'll be thinking of you x

Molly3 I have actual indigestion tonight so I guess that the Pepcid isn't the solution. Off to the doc tomorrow. Good luck tomorrow!

Thanks girls!

Madam Reverie, PPI is now your new BFF! Which one are you on?

ElyQuint, I will post on FB tomorrow. Please ask your doctor for something stronger to go with the Pepcid....NO BUENO!

XOXO

Omeprazole. I love it so much, I think I may attempt to become a pharmaceutical rep for the company who makes it....

[ElyQuint 446]

Well I been scoped by the ent and he sees no sign if the gerd or allergies. Gotta call the surgeon.

[Madam Reverie 2,958]

Oh no... Let us know how you get on. Must be quite frustrating to feel awful, but not have a diagnosis yet.. Chin up x

I upped my anti acids to omeprozole and ranitidine, plus the occasional tums on the go. I'm sleeping with 4 pillow, too. The lump is better. The dr put me on reglin, too. I think the lumo might be scarred tissue in your esophagus and needs to heal before going away.
