If so, that was an inappropriate response to your problem. I think you and I are in agreement on the likely source.
Thanks very much.
I went to an ENT specialist who told me point blank that it was a mental problem. I know for a fact its not a mental problem.
I searched online and all indication lead to some kind of acid reaction in the stomach area which could be causing this problem.
I don't think this is a problem with your voice box. This sounds more like an esophageal problem and your voice box is an innocent bystander. There are ways to diagnose this, but you will need to see a Gastroenterologist to do it. I would encourage you to go that route rather than covering it up with withdrawing socially and taking those medications.
