Thyroid Nodule or Globus Sensation?
Posted , 1 user is following.
Waking up with "globus sensation" about once a week that lasts all day.
Feels like a pill or something is stuck in the base of my throat. It is so uncomfortable I have tried to make myself vomit hoping it would release something.
The feeling typically lasts an entire day and completely causes me to lose focus due to the discomfort
I have slight, upper chest pain when I eat or drink
This feeling is accompanied by burping
I assumed it could be gas in the chest? But not everything is lining up.
I have no anxietythat I can imagine is causing this.
I do have a 2ish cm thyroid nodule in a similar location to where I feel this "globus" sensation. Could the thyroid nodule be all of a sudden causing this sensation? I have known about the nodule for years, and just in the last few months have been experiencing this feeling.
I have also been having trouble swallowing pills lately - even on the days when I am not experiencing this issue. This has never been an issue for me before.
