I went for a gastroscopy today. They found nothing. But for four years i have been choking on food like potatoes..bread meat chicken. Food just goes down very very slowly. I had the worst day of my life today with the fear of this gastroscopy today. I understand so much better now after watching this video. I wish you were my doctor. Thank you so much for this

There is an illness called achalasia. Although it is unlikely, because it is quite rare, it might be worth looking into this. You would need to see an upper GI consultant rather than ENT.

I am very concerned with the constant lump feeling in my throat, can't get anyone to take me seriously for love nor money. Super worried that it could be something serious. Will try anything to get rid of this lump feeling in throat. Thank you for your dedication and effort to help those who feel abandoned. Would be super happy to come to any event that you set up. I'll be keeping an eye open for any info that you may send me. Many thanks.

I had this and now take ACV each morning and it has helped hugely! I found out that normal acid in stomach makes the upper valve close properly but if the acid isn't as strong which happens as we age the valve doesnt close properly causing acid reflux and a feeling of a lump in the throat. I learnt this from Dr Berg who has a vid explaining how it all works. I am so grateful. No drugs necessary! 😊

I laughed so hard and looked him dead in the face and said Yes actually for the last 15 years. And his face turned into a face of Shame and I said don't even go near the fact you think that this is in my head. Turns out a year later I've got rheumatoid arthritis and their rheumatoid nodules which can be really bad on top of the fact that now my joints are starting to become deformed all because they thought I needed therapy🤬🤬🤬

I have been suffering with this on and off for a year. See my post here and how a side effect of low calcium can cause this. I started taking calcium supplements and it went away within hours. Might not be your issue, but wow it helped me. I was really suffering. I also have been taking vitamin D and magnesium which might help, but it was the calcium added last that really, really helped me. I hope it helps you too. I had been having heartburn so I also was trying to reduce that but it wasn't enough. Anxiety made it worse yes, but the magnesium and vitamin D especially has helped a little bit with that.

God bless you! Finally a doctor that knows something about what I have been going through! I have so much trouble swallowing food, even drinking liquids slow down and gets stuck in an area in my neck. As if the food and drink is trying to move past a lump in the way. Even when I swallow saliva I feel the lump. I have a history of acid reflux and hiatus hernia. I had this hiatus hernia for decades. Then they did another barium swallow, ( the first one I had about 30 yrs ago that showed and diagnosed large hernia) a say they didn't see one; they said it was gone! I have been on acid pump inhibitors for over 30 yrs. If I stop taking them, I vomit blood from the acid. I also have severe esophageal spasms that feel like and mimic a heart attack. I have to take Glycerol Trinitrate spray. Food is always in my esophagus and mostly undigested for many hours later. There's always something coming up. I think I still have the hernia. I also have a ton of pullups in my stomach that are what bleed. But with the lump in my neck food gets stuck and won't move. If I drink to try and move it, the liquid won't go past and painfully fills above it and it all pours out when I tip forward. It is an awful problem. My GP, who is new, my old one retired, doesn't seem concerned and seems to not understand. The Consultant I was seeing for the pollups and getting scopes every two yrs to get a sample and check for changes in the pollups, just decided to drop me. He said they were monitoring it long enough. Even though I have such a history even of an ulcer, he dropped me. I have to get my GP to get me back on a waiting list to see someone for this problem. I have been fearful of a tumour or some growth there. You have calmed my fears and gave me hope. It is very frightening to get it stuck there and it won't shift. I chew well and small bites but, still a problem. Like I said, even water slows down going past the lump, which I think may be the cricopharyngees muscle. Especially with my history. Should I see an ENT consultant like yourself here in Ireland, or another type of consultant? Thank you again for calming some of my worries. God bless you!✝️🕊🙏🏻

1. My throat-clearing is not so much caused by that *one liter of nasal mucus per day* and a swallowing problem, but for the fact that my vocal cords and tissues are *overly neurally activated*. My ENT said that I have mild edema and erythema of the vocal cords. Your information fits the phenomenon. 2. Probably need a barium-swallow esophagram. Would those *mucosal patches* or pharyngal pouches* have showed up on an endoscopy? I had the endoscopy at the Gastrointestinal department. The test results were negative for "everything" down to the duodenum. The doctor observed a small hiatus hernia. 3. My globus is abating, but I have a bit of dysphagia. I am trying my own swallowing exercises. Great writing, doctor. Very much to the point. You have completed a lot of missing information that I could not figure from Dr. Jamie Koufman, Dr. Johnathon Aviv, and hundreds of articles and videos that I watched. Will read your e-book. Thank you from America!

CALCIUM. More specifically low calcium. I have been suffering with this feeling for nearly a year. The main thing that has changed in my life lately was I largely cut out meat and dairy. I saw an dr. eric berg video on globus here on youtube ('what to do for lump in throat' is the title). He recommended taking two specific forms of calcium supplements. If you search hypocalcemia/low calcium one of symptoms is issues with throat and breathing. Vitamin D can be needed to help absorb calcium (which is partly why some supplements even have both, I assume). My avoiding cheese completely and this sensation from hell lined up perfectly. I can't even believe how much better I feel. I have been taking magnesium, vitamin D and now calcium which all can help various things (such as anxiety to help me relax over this)... but the calcium is what really got it to go away. First I ordered food with some cheese in it, also took a daily multi vitamin which started to help. Then I got calcium supplements and FINALLY. I didn't connect the dots until later but days when I'd eat a lot of edamame and broccoli, I would feel my throat relax. Even on the merck website hypocalcemia has various mentions of the throat issues with non medicine recommendations. (take calcium and vitamin D may be needed also). I still think acid reflux is probably the major issue, but it is disappointing to not see more on calcium on various website, cause it fixed it within hours. I highly recommend calcium supplements. I will also say - too much calcium in the form of tums is what killed my father being on dialysis for years. Calcified his insides until many amputations and eventually heart attacks. So you need to be extremely careful at least on dialysis. However for 36 year old me, wow calcium finally helped me. Combined with vitamin D supplementation in the winter I feel night and day different than the last entire year plus whenever I was eating no cheese/dairy. I hope this helps someone else. It is literally a side effect of low calcium listed all over on many sources.

Very interesting to hear about the possible components of this feeling of lump in the throat. I get that feeling occasionally while eating, and it absolutely keeps me from eating or drinking until things in the throat relax and the lump goes away. Then, I can continue eating as if nothing had happened. I find it happens more frequently after the first few bites of a meal, especially if I am eating too fast, and eating such things as chicken. Then, hard stop. At that point - very uncomfortable, hard to talk, etc. Can last for minutes or much more, with a quite full/bloated feeling in the stomach. Even trying to swallow small sips of water can bring a bit of the food back up. Lately I have found a quick fix. I have found that for me, taking even a small drink of coca cola relieves the bloated stomach feeling and the lump on the throat feeling, and I can carry on eating as if nothing had happened. Not sure what is happening, but I now always try to keep a small bit of coca cola on hand just in case this situation occurs.

HOW I CURED MY GLOBUS! So background story first, i had my globus for two weeks now and its so frustrating like something is slightly holding my throat. Its not painful but feeling it there irritates me so much. Tho there are times in the day that i dont feel it first when i wake up in the morning and when im eating. So one afternoon i decide to play my guitar randomly and singing cuz we have a performance in our school. I sang for like straight 30 min and after that I didn't notice it yet but when i lie down in bed it was goneeee.I also discovered ways to ease the sensation and who knows this might remove yours. Since globus sensation is due to muscle contraction inside your throat i try to vomit myself and what i notice is that my esophagus feels enlarged and the sensation hoes away You can also try exercising because when you exercise your throat expands due to need of air and it will easen the sensation. Hope this works!

In the 80s my father was told that coffee can cause Globus. Sure enough, stopping coffee cured it for him. I experience exactly the same thing - some types of instant coffee or coffee pods will entirely predictably cause this effect for several days. Real coffee never does, though. Coffee manufacturers were aware of this phenomenon by the 90s, because at least one was studying it.

Wow! Just wow. You are an amazing doctor. I think just listening to you break down this condition has brought me relief. Thank you for this detailed information. Now, my issue is this. Since 2021, I have had what an ENT doctor described as globus sensation on my throat, after an endoscopy. He ascribed it to fizzy drinks and advised that I stop taking them. I stopped and noticed improvement. However, since early March, this year, the sensation is severe and causing some bit of pain in my ear and throat. I have no breathing, swallowing, and detectable lumps around my neck. And my voice is okay. I am saying this because I am dead scared of throat cancer. But, I am guilty because I started taking fizzy drinks, and energy drinks starting late last year until January 2024. I am a bit concerned! In Zambia, my country, to see an ENT takes about three months because those specialized doctors are found in only the capital city at a referral hospital. Unfortunately, even when you seek early diagnosis, the system fails you and if you are unlucky, you end up losing your life. I am signing up for the free book. Thank you once more.

In the US you can find Reflux Gourmet alginate therapy. I've experienced not so much a lump but instead a persistent tickle or itch in that region close to my vocal cords for over a year. Clearing my throat of a little mucus offers a few seconds of relief. My symptom is exacerbated by deeper breathing and travelling in the car with A/C on. ENT scope looked normal. I'll try more consistent use of alginate as you suggest to see if that helps. I've always used it on and off. I look forward to the next videos on this topic!

I'm excited to see the other 2 videos! Honestly, I'm a mess, literally. This has been one of the most complete and understandable dive into the issue that I've seen, even if it doesn't apply to me. I had a lovely barium lunch a couple of years ago and it revealed that not only do I swallow like a 90 year old (I'm 56), my swallow reflex is very delayed (which explains why I could open my throat and down a 12 ounce wine cooler in one go when I was 19), as well as that I can sweep my vallecula to be sure my pills have gone down when I have the sensation that one got stuck. Unfortunately, it was a referred sensation as the pill was found to be stuck at my esophageal sphincter that doesn't always open, or opens when it shouldn't. I also have a C-bar that will likely have to be shaved at some point so I can swallow. Nissen? NO way. If I need to vomit, I can't think of anything more miserable than not being able to. I have had a dry cough in my sleep for years, as well as laryngospasms that are terrifying if you don't know to breathe through your nose. How did I learn to breathe through my nose to convince my brain that I can actually still breathe fine? After my hyst, I came to in PACU, sitting bolt upright in bed, stridoring, and asking for my own racemic epi. No one had a clue what happened. Years later, I had to have a partial sigmoid colectomy (have you figured out I'm a retired medical person?) for diverticulitis with diverticulosis. I warned Anesthesia. I came to, in PACU, bolt upright in bed with the Anesthesiologist looking at me with his arms crossed. Back to "sleep" to awaken to this guy on the phone with the best ENT in town. Asked whether I wanted the scope via my nose or my mouth. Chose my mouth. I have a deviated septum and couldn't tell him about it. Because of what I will say next, I was diagnosed with Paradoxical Vocal Cord Motion Abnormality, which explained the stridor on extubation for those 2 surgeries. I've always loved singing. After, instead of singing Linda Ronstadt, I sang bass. Vocal cords are irreparably changed. I can actually sing super-low bass to a point. I have some form of Ehler's-Danlos that I've never wanted to be tested for to the tune of $1000 out of pocket because I have no cardiac or ocular symptoms. Hyper-mobile joints with stenotic sphincters (the first was my cervix, diagnosed at age 12). So, none of my sphincters work entirely well all of the time. Some, not at all. Thus, my swallowing issues and the weak muscles and the stenotic, testy sphincters, the stuck pills. Besides that, my vallecula pools and the empties right down my trachea. There's also a pocket beneath that fills with solids, and when all of that liquifies/melts, it also goes straight down my trachea. Thank goodness I have a good cough. How did I come to know all of this? Because I actually passed out when liquid ended up in my trachea. Liquid is hard to clear from the trachea. And I still had access to the best ENT in town just before he retired.

When I first experienced this I was terrified and I actually had a very dry mouth and throat and I couldn't breathe. It felt very different to anxiety which I've had before. Are then managed to find some water to have and it was a struggle to even swallow the water. Eventually I did and it seemed to help that I wet my throat. It has been on and off for almost a year now and I get that mucus sensation as well where I feel like there's something stuck at the bottom of my throat like a grain of rice or something and I can just never clear it and sometimes I think it's a tonsil stone that never can be dislodged. Overall I can live with it but it's extremely frustrating. I find that it's easily triggered when I speak a lot or exert power in my voice when I speak. Shouting is basically just not even possible anymore. I get the lump in the throat mostly as like a small type of lump feeling when my throat goes dry. But if I continue to try to speak when my throat is dry, I feel like it's a bigger lump in throat. Like a golf ball size. It's almost like speaking makes it worse. When I eat and drink however, I feel like there is no sensation there. I generally don't drink that much water which I know is bad, but I'm just wondering if that's also something that other people have noticed. Is the lack of water part of the reason this happens?? Anyway, just putting it out there. Would love some more feedback and experience stories. 😊

I would have to stop breathing for up to 3 minutes because I couldn't inhale. This explains it perfectly the muscle is closing. It's tightening up where in which I cannot inhale. And I have to wait for it to relax before I can breath Terrifying what diagnosis is that Please tell me

I’ve seen so many doctors for the globus sensation and usually got the answer “acid reflux” while I don’t really feel the reflux. Or “oh, I see some nasal drip on the back of your throat, that is why”. I even underwent endoscopy and was told “we cannot see anything but maybe it is your anxiety”, I agree because I felt better after the procedure, but there is a missing piece, why anxiety causes the sensation? Now it makes perfect sense! Thank you Dr. Veer! PS: I wonder if my aerophagia caused by CPAP therapy triggers the globus sensation.

I had this years ago. It got to the point where I could not swallow without constant effort and became extremely dehydrated and was hospitalized. I saw a digestive specialist who told me there was nothing wrong with me and discharged me! Eventually I got to a good digestive specialist who did a manometry test. He diagnosed ‘diffuse esophageal spasm’. I was given calcium channel blockers to manage the esophageal issue. I was also referred to a health care psychologist, who used hypnotism (made me a tape) to listen to at night to normalize the swallowing process. It is not supposed to be a process that requires awareness and I had struggled so long to try to swallow, it was constantly in my awareness. After about 6 months of the calcium channel blockers and the night time tape, I was approaching normal swallowing again. I needed the diltiazem for about 2 years, eventually discontinuing them. This was a horrific experience. I now know more about the process of swallowing and what affects the esophagus than I ever could have imagined.

I had horrible GERD that wasn't being helped after 10+ years of medication (omeprazole). My doctor and I decided that LINX surgery would work for me and it's solved most of my problems, except the feeling like I have something stuck in my throat. I had the surgery almost 10 years ago and I'm still dealing with constantly clearing my throat. It feels like there's something blocking it, whether it's mucus I'm not sure. I also have dust allergies, but I'm on medication for that as well. An new EMT I saw said it was just habit coughing and I would be fine if I just drank water and didn't clear my throat anymore. I do have a lot of stress...

Some years ago, visiting my parents, eating dinner, I just simply couldn’t remember how to swallow anything, it was very frightening. I went to see my GP who casually diagnosed ‘Globus Hystericus’, I believe that has since been renamed, but nothing was done or recommended as a treatment and the problem has persisted and comes and goes. (Side note: I’ve just searched for Gaviscon Advance and apparently an essential ingredient is in short supply globally and not available in many places. I’m in Australia)

Yes, this is a very real problem since it also causes me a lot of sleep loss. I do find taking a small sip of liquid before eating helps open things and can help avoid gagging. Loosing or gaining even 3 to 5lbs makes a big difference too. I have the added issue of kyphosis (hunchback) and poor posture which contributes. I believe it is a combination of reflux and anxiety. Which also triggers neck pain for me. Know I know why the Galvison has always helped more than other antacids. Thank you Dr. For making this video.

I may be jumping ahead….but what about neurosensory cough? After about 10yrs of ENT and Gastros telling me it was GERD/LPR, nothing helped. After hours and hours of doing my own research, I decided that my problem could be NSC. After persuading my MD to allow me to try Gabapentin, and titrating it myself, i finally had relief. It was a miracle drug of sorts. However, it took high doses of GBP to reach therapeutic levels (for me.) I am a dentist, and it became problematic to see patients, so I switched to amitryptaline, again titrating, and have dialed in relief at 50mg/day.

Doctor Veer, I learnt a lot from your videos on the subject, thank you. I am male, 69 years of age and have been diagnosed with stomach reflux in early December 2023. I was prescribed with Peptac Liquid and daily 20 mg of Omeprazole capsules. My persistent sore throat and hoarseness in the voice did improve slightly but has not yet gone away. However after taking the medication for about 25 days (around 5th January 2024), I suddenly found it difficult to swallow any slightly larger hard objects, such as the cod liver oil capsules that I have been taking 20 or thirty years ago. Even the modest sized Omeprazole capsules will cause some discomfort, at the bottom of the throat and just above the chest. Now the span of the discomfort has extended to all day, long after I have swallowed those medication and supplement. Would you be able to help explain what my problem is? By the way is Gaviscon Advance you recommended in the video the same as Peptac Liquid? Thanks for your help.

I have actually aspirated contents into my lungs when I've fallen asleep and the upper sphincter muscles relaxes. My throat has swollen and I drool heavily for and hour coughing this acid up. I usually end up with a lung infection after this. I've learned to go to bed with an empty stomach but there are still complications. Mostly air gets stuck and I can't get it out unless I sit up. The pressure this stuck burp causes behind my throat pushing water and medication against it usually keeps me awake. I'm trying to see a doc here in the states but insurance is out of my financial range. I've got major issues after I swallow. All this is probably causing the lump sensation in my throat.
