So this is random but based on "Dr. Google" I'm finding some info which brings me here....

Has anyone else felt like they have something stuck in the back of their throat or tonsil? I've had it since last Monday. I went to the dr on Thursday and he said its most likely a scratch or burn and it should heal in a few days. I'm going on day 8 and its driving me nuts. Some people online are saying ketosis can cause this- seems odd but who knows.... Anyone?

I'm not aware of IP being the cause of that, but there are people who find they have allergy/sensitivity to certain ingredients in some IP packets. There is a possibility you are having some kind of allergic reaction. Also, do you have an existing thyroid condition or goiter? There's also a chance if you have those conditions that you are eating veggies that may aggravate it.

Your best bet is to run it by your doctor, see if there is any testing they want to do or food tests they want you to try.

Oooh- interesting. I'm going to an Ear Nose & Throat doctor tomorrow and will definitely bring that up. When I got pregnant in December my thyroid was normal but they like to see a better number when pg so I went on meds but stopped when I m/c. I'll bring that up too. Thanks!!!

Post-nasal drip has made me feel this way in the past.
