a long history of symptoms
by Denden, Sep 13, 2002 12:00AM
Good day, let me jump right into it...
About 7-8 months ago, all of a sudden at work I got a lump in the throat, at first it was as if a fish a bone was stuck but eventually moved to the back of my throat, I saw a doctor who did a swab and sent me to a throat spec. and suspected GRED, al the tests didn't show anything. I was given Nexium, no avail. About a week later I went back and complained about stomach problems on top of the throat problems. Symptoms were lots of gas, always feeling hungry and the occasional green stool. I was given a medicine for IBS and that seemed to help a bit, but did not make me better. after another few weeks my stomach problems went away but I still have discomfort in my throat. Now recently(the last week) I have a new problem... I have mild tighness in my chest and my breathing has become more rapid, I find that I yawn sometimes to increase the amount of air I take in. The condition may be getting better but I can't tell for sure, and yes I still have the throat problem.
Both the throat and the breathing are worse when I am tierd.
Also about a year and a half ago I had Viral Meningitis. I always have congested sinuses and do NOT have a cough.
Do you have any idea what I may have?

There may be a variety of explanations for your symptoms, including anxiety. The first step is to have a doctor evaluate your throat, the initial and persisting site of your symptoms. This should include direct observation of the throat and the use of imaging (X-ray) techniques to visualize the throat. If not already performed, you should also have a chest X-ray.
my husband (lungs especially)and I (various) were
having problems for which there seemed nothing
doctors did helped enough to overcome.
He got a book from the library called
Hydrogen Peroxide Medical Miracle by
William Campbell Douglass, Md.
He is going to a chelation doctor twice each week
at the cost of $100.00 per trip.
We hesitated to spend the money but soon learned that
it is worth every dollar spent.
I am doing the peroxide at home...been on it for two
weeks and can tell the difference already.
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED in learning more you may write.
