Acid reflux neck pain?? Help needed!!

hi everyone im in desperate need to find out if my symptoms seem common of LPR / acid reflux. sorry for the long post but i want to give as much information as possible. i am a 29 year old male, i do not smoke and i drink maybe 1 pint of beer a month. i am over weight but not obese and my diet is mixed to be honest some bad foods some good. now i have had acid reflux since the age of around 20 and have been taking medication on and off for about 2 years now. gaviscon dosnt touch me but omoprazole does however gives me bad stomach pain. now i have typical symptoms however a few are fairly new. firstly i only feel acid in my chest if its very very severe, i usually feel it mostly in my throat. i can get a hoarse voice dry mouth or excessive mouth watering, bitter taste in mouth, tight chest, lots of burping / hiccups. for the past few months ive been getting neck pain very close to my tonsil area but not down my throat if that makes sense if actually feels like its behind my tonsils in my neck, it started only with the right side and this week now on the left, the pain actually hurts if i try and press the area and can be felt in my ears when i do, its like a sharp stab pain when touched or an ache when left alone, ive also got itchy ears deep inside and pain now and then, my throat can itch a lot and cause a tickly cough. also comes and goes. the neck pain deffinately gets better when my acid is not as bad but i just want to know if anyone has experienced anything like this? i suffer with anxiety and couldnt get the thought of cancer out my head but ive been to gp who felt my neck etc and said i have no signs of that. my ears can also feel wet and itchy at the same time if that makes sense its hard to describe. but its the neck pain im wondering if anyone else has had?? apologies again for the long post. and thankyou kindly..
