I know this is long, but it's the only way to really explain: I was admitted 3 years ago for sever acid reflux. I've been sick for almost a year now straight. I keep getting tossed back and forth with no answers. Last year my throat swelled and I was rushed to the ER. When I got back home I was sent to three docs who decided I had Angio edema...with no known cause. I went to the Allergy Doc who said he didn;t think it was from An allergy but sent me to take all the "T" test and all came back fine. Since this started every day I have trouble swallowing. Pain in my left ear on and off. Once in a while my tongue will swell or tingle. And a thick mucus in my throat. The ear, nose and throat doc keeps sending my back to the gastro doc. I've been on prevacid for three months now, two times a day with no help. I'm feeling helpless. I can't afford to keep doing this much longer. About three months ago I had an emergency endoscopies and all he said was a slight aggravation in my throat and to up my acid pills to twice a day. I am being seen by a Allergy, Ear nose and Throat and a gastro plus my family doc. Do I try to find a whole new set of these docs and try again? Where do I turn now..?
