    hello,

    im so sorry you going through this right now.. i went through it last year and it was the worst tine of my life. However im now at the other end of it and im proof that there is light at the end of the tunnel.

    The tightness in my throat at the time was awful it made me gag and i felt like someone had there hands very very tightly around my throat it was horrible. i went to A&E 3 times and the doctors 3 times seen many different doctors and they all said globus which at the tine i absolutely didnt believe.

    I was put in citalopram (anxiety tablets) and sent to cognitive behavior therapy. I didnt think it would work but it did it really really did im still on the tablets now and probably will be for a while but thats fine i have no side affects from them.

    Go see your doctor and discuss options. I hope you find something that works like i did.

    Any questions just ask.
