Help...nausious all the time

[phix95]

And I mean like in the back of my throat, not that my stomach hurts all the time. The best way I can think of to describe it is if you picture when you would force yourself to vomit by putting your finger down your throat and pushing...(I've never actually done this tho), and how your throat opens up. That's what it feels like especially when I'm yawning. Like something might come up.
I do have post nasal drip but I've had that for like 20 years and never had this problem. I have anxiety too. I hate this feeling and have also a limited appetite over the past week. I'm on Nasacort, singulair, and zyrtec...its what my doc has given me for this problem. (When I got the meds, I was also complaining of dizzyness, and fullness in my head)
He thinks its due to the post nasal...I just dont know.
Please please help.

May be "globus" from anxiety - I had that in 2002, it was HORRIBLE!! Sometimes I'd even gag THINKING I was going to puke just to get it out of there, but nothing was there! You may be getting spasms in the gag reflex area too, that is another kind of problem I get, that isn't the lump puke feeling, it was more of a sensation of an impending gag.

Thankyou.
That's awful!! I do have stuff in my throat but it has never been a prob. b4. What can I do? I go to the doc tomorrow.
I dont know if its exactly the same as that... and could it be something else?
I started getting anxious about it like, last Wed. It is making me more anxious. But I was not anxious to begin with, eg, I dont think anxiety CAUSED it.
I feel it even more when I yawn.
It feels awful and I'm always scared I'm gonna puke.

i went to the doc and he gave me prevacid and said to go off the other meds. He wants me to do an upper GI (ive done them twice before). Then go to an ear nose, throat doctor. I am anxious and scared over this and I feel very alone b/c I dont know what it is and I feel like no one understands. I can barely eat. Any help?

If it is what I had NO stomach pill is going to work (they gave me Prevacid, Reglan (I think that was the name) and nothing worked - except Xanax! Another thing to see if it is a spasm (which did work for me only after months of suffering with it), is look way up at the ceiling by lifting your neck as high as it will go, stretching that area as hard as you can. If it's a spasm it should "release" a few minutes. I wouldn't go for any kinds of tests until you see what happens first. It also COULD be mucus, so just hang in there for a bit! How long has this been going on? If it's something like GERD, then the Prevacid WILL work. So just take it one step at a time.
