hello, i have had ear pain, mild sore throats, feels like something stuck in my thraot, clear throat alot, and stiff neck which i can feel a swishing sound when i walk. i have also had some heartburn, so i wonder if these could be the symptoms of gerd. i am seeing an ent, he checked my throat and didn't see any growths and is going to have an mri done on me. in the meantime i am quite frightened, especially of throat cancer, has anyone had the same symptoms? i am beside myself with fear.
