I've read on here about people getting severe chest pains and aches and sore throats - I get the sore throats and sometimes feel like someone is standing on my chest - but by far the strangest thing is this feeling I get very often - nearly every day - which feels like someone has put a pipe down my throat and wedged it there (feels like the camera is down me in endoscopy again). I can swallow ok - it's just this heavy uncomfortable feeling?!

    I have a constant sore throat, and wierd upper stomach discomfort. It constantly bothers, depresses me. I want to have hiatus hernia surgery to get rid of these symptoms.

      Hi, I hope to get surgery myself. In fact I have manometry test and ph test next week before seeing surgeon in a couple of weeks time. I hope you can get yourself sorted too. It can be a bit of a curse!

    I get the same sensation a few times a week.I put a hot water bottle on neck, under jaw. The feeling does go away.

      Hi Keith,

      It's quite reassuring to know that there are other people who feel the same sensations. I don't find warmth helps me so much and righf now I feel the sensations more as I have had to stop my meds before tests next week. Any way to find relief is good though!
