o.k, for the past 7 weeks I feel as if I am losing mind! It started with a tightness/pressure in my throat. Like there is a lump or something in there and I can’t get it out. It seems to get worse as the day progresses. By the evening not only can I not eat anything solid, but not feeling hungry at all! Just before Xmas I went to a walk-in clinic and the Dr there said it may be GERD and prescribed some Prevacid for me. After taking it religiously for 2 weeks I was no better off with this tightness in my throat. Last Thurs I went to the walk in clinic AGAIN, saw the same Dr. This time he told me that it may be “Webs” in my lower esophagus. WEBS?!!! I looked it up on the net and found some interesting stuff, apparently it is common to people with obesity, type 2 and thyroid. I have lost over 85lbs, I eat my food slowly and dont eat fattening/fried or very spicy foods and my thyroid is just fine. Am I going crazy? I am getting scared and thinking it might be something more serious and dont seem to be getting too many answers. I am TOTALLY stressed out about this. I wonder if that is a link? Stress, I mean. Oh I also get sharp pains in my upper back, back of neck and right shoulder.
Anyone else out there with this problem too??
I am IR with PCOS and taking Glucophage and Meridia
