I haven't experienced it in my chest, but definitely in my throat. All the freaking time.

Yes, I have this right now. But I actually have heart skipping. I do have allergies. But the congestion that has moments of being worse than others is stressful.
I contracted CoVid last month. My husband brought it home from work. The actual illness was like having the flu for me. We both recovered at home. I tested negative twice since so I am clear. But my gallbladder and upper stomach has caused me nothing but grief. . I have a consultation with a surgeon this afternoon. I had just had blood work done and it is all normal as is the ultrasound on my upper stomach and gallbladder. I have turned short tempered and snappish with my pain and ongoing malaise. I am 52 and three years postmenopause and I have had enough of all of my body bs. Most days I feel I just wish I would just hurry up and die already.
The congestion on my part could be from my digestive issues. I also have Silent reflux.
Is it possible you have reflux? LPR or Silent reflux doesn't feel like GERD. It is throat clearing because the body wants to coat the damage that acid it doing to the throat and can include coughing congestion feel. Especially after eating. I drink alkaline water which used to help but I think my issue goes way deeper with my gallbladder and serious digestive issues from it.
You might want to look up LPR (Laryngopharyngeal reflux) or also known as Silent reflux.

Come to find out that I have to have an MRI on my pancreas because the head of my pancreas is enlarged. I also have to have and endoscopy and a colonoscopy before my gallbladder can be removed. According to my surgeon (who I really like) she wants to check for ulcers on the top end and possible polyps on the bottom end. That way it can all be taken care of in surgery . My blood work she says my liver panel is wonderful and my pancreas enzymes? is good. Meanwhile I am worried about my pancreas and possible cancer. Not to mention the pain I am in with no relief in sight because I have to wait to get the MRI and oscopies scheduled, done and find out the results. I am afraid my upper stomach pain is my pancreas. It isn't like I can have a pancreas-ectomy. The pain is bringing me low.
