esophagus/thyroid issues
for quite a few years now i've had what feels like an obstruction in my throat in the front lower area (right under lymph nodes). The severity of the uncomfortable feeling gets slightly worse when my head is facing down or on its side. It feels slightly difficult to swallow and breathe but not so much so that i cant do either. The doctors said my throat (from the inside) looks fine and my tonsils nor adenoids look overly inflamed. Pressing slightly against the thyroid area of my throat causes an extremely uncomfortable more severe feeling of this obstruction and is close to impossible to swallow when pushed against. I haven't experienced weight or hair loss, but I have experienced joint pain, heartburn/reflux (oddly, mainly at night), heart problems, trouble sleeping, mild difficulty breathing and swallowing, anxiousness (included with sweating), fatigue, and near most of the symptoms of hyperthyroidism. The feeling being there at all times for years is driving me up the wall. it's taking away from my enjoyment of life (causing constant anxiety and feeling uncomfortable) but i have been to ENT three times now, and they "cant figure out" what could be wrong. Might try to get a thyroid check done and if not, a ct scan. Would appreciate any thoughts
