I have been surfing this board for 2 months now. it is great. Sad to see all the people on here with the same stuff but in other ways comforting I am not alone. Here is my deal. I have had Heart Burn on and off for years. Back in may I had HB for a week straight so started to take over counter Prilosec. Worked on the heart burn but left me with a Lump in throat sensation. So discontinued. A week later went to ENT and was scoped. Told him my symptoms he said GERD took a feast test to confirm so he prescribed Zegred, no HB re-occurance but lump didnt go away after 3 to 4 weeks, so they switched me to Prevacid 30mg twice a day. Now here I am 3 months later and still have symptoms of lump and this wierd Burping.
The symptoms... The lump sensation gets worse as day progresses, in AM it is ok and worse as day goes on. Some days if is better others worse.. and eating makes it go away completely. The wierd thing to me is the burping and it is weird burping like gurgling type burps... Has anyone ever experienced this?? and it is constant. Like gas stuck so you force the burp..... Also I make that sound like you are trying to Hock a lugger (Sorry I know gross) but nothing ever comes up...
I have no pain this is just so so frustrating!! I go back soon for a follow up with ent.. but was curious if anyone else has the same symptoms and if they know of anything that may help a little...
Thanks and I hope we all get better soon
