: I was diagnosed with a hiatal hernia about two years ago. since then I have been taking prilosec religiously. It seems to help. However, some strange symptoms began occuring about a week ago. I have what feels like a lump in my throat that won't go away. I try to hack it up but to no avail. Its like a dull pressure mid throat that drives me crazy. I can swallow ok but it feels a little wierd. I'm getting a little tired of this !! Has anyone else experienced this with a HH?

To the guy with the lump in throat...try taking some Benadryl...helped me when I had this....don't know why....but it did.
