    I experienced a few times what you are talking about. Horrid, horrid feeling..when i feel pain coming on, I eat a slice of RED DELICIOUS apple. I read that on one of these forums and it really did seem to help ..but eat b4 it gets tremendous. At first sign of burning..I got off ppi's and just do organic apple cider vinegar each morning. Read up on natural ways of helping, and maybe you too can find something that helps..I truly feel for you, because I know the pain...

      Hi thanks for suggesting that but I think if I watch an apple it would sting my gullet even more as it's feeling very sore and raw at the moment but I will try that when I'm not so bad

      There are several on a sight called My story and how I beat globus sensation. . It's a really good site..many really good supporters..when you say gullet, what are you referring to? Sorry, but not sure. Stomach? I have issues in throat, burning , raw feeling. ENT said the rawness is from the acid rising up in my throat burning it. Sometimes eating chips an nuts seems to scratch it as well. Really try to stay away from fried and spicy foods..my ENT never said anything about diet. Shame on him. I feel many WANT us on ppis..I don't like side affects..please research diet changes. That's the hardest but best posible solution. Until then..keep on keeping on and go into the patient forum I just told u about. Lots of support..take care..
