feels like something is in my throat

hi everyone, i've been having a bit of difficulty with breathing. i can breathe ok, but sometimes i feel like something in my throat is abstructing the way and i'm left to gasp for air (i don't panick or freak out.. but just breathe a lot harder to get a normal breath of air). also, i can see holes in the back of my throat on some little bag things, there's nothing in them right now but from time to time i might find something. my breath too is bad even after i've brushed my teeth like crazy. i've been to my doctor, done some xrays, waiting on all that and an appointment with an ent but who knows when that'll ever happen. i've had this problem for 3 months now.. i did go to the clinic a while back, about 1.5 months ago, was given 4 weeks worth of antibiotics, told to take 2 weeks and if it helped to take another 2. it didn't help obviously since i'm still at times gasping for air and still feel as though something is in my throat 24/7. my tonsils aren't that big at all, my doctor was saying it could be something in my throat that she wouldn't be able to see by just looking down my throat. anyone have any ideas?! this has been driving me pretty mad these past few months. my lungs btw are clear and perfect! i know this because everytime i go in for this problem, i end up getting chest xrays after i tell the docs it's in my throat and not my lungs.. so i definately know that it is not my lungs.. i'm positive it's in my throat. sorry, just frustrated

mm.. me again.. anyone have any idea as to what this can be? maybe someone who's experienced this same thing? i haven't heard a word from my doc, i'm not surprised.. that's why i wanted to cme on here to find out what this could be to maybe to help make this all go quicker.. it's getting so frustrating that i can't even breathe in a normal breath.. i kind of grunt or snort in my throat when i do.. and it's still driving me real mad..

Do you have any trouble swallowing?

Re: feels like something is in my throat

i could swallow just fine before today. i woke up with a sore throat (again!) it's swollen in the back but going upwards in my throat, not down to my glands or those things that normally swell up. this is the 3rd time i get a sore throat with this too. i'm about to call my doc to see why they're being so slow at all of this, everytime i swallow it hurts.. i still can't breathe normal or else i snore. i've started getting used to breathing differently, although at times i slip and make a snort.. slightly embarassing if anyone hears it..

You need to see an ENT (Ear, Nose, Throat) specialist.
