Had Globus Hystericus here is how I cured it .

Take 1 Cetirizine tablet , its a anti hystamine , I had all allergy tests all clear.

But my body was attacking itself through HEAT others can get attacked by COLD drinks . The body releases small amounts of hystamine enough to make you feel like you have a lump in throat or someone holding your throat .

You do not need an EPI pen but you need to take an anti-hystamine as its the low level hstamine closing your throat a little dont be alarmed its not BEE STING full closure , for that you would have HIVES-LIPS-TOUNG -THEN- THROAT .

Globus Sensation is very low level hystamine attack , try an antihystamin stay to non drowsy versions as you will need to take 1 each day !

let me know here if it fixed your problem , as we need good results to show it is low level hystamine attack on system.

      Jim, I took your advice and I tried Zyrtec and it worked! It took about an hour to two hours to kick in but it did subside. Thank you so much for your help and input. I was really obsessing over this awful feeling and finding myself down about it. There is hope! I advise you all to give it a go and I so hope it works for you all, like myself. Goodluck!

    I ask would like to add that my lump started after I ate really spicy food. It started with bad pain in my stomach and then the lump appeared. So I now stay away from any spicy foods. I also noticed that it subsides while I'm eating but not with soft food. And it worsens when I stress over it. Zyrtec people, Zyrtec!

      I went to shop twice to buy it but have been sold Zertec but its a different name, gerneric brand and havent noticed any change yet.

      The one that has been recommended to me is one with the ingredient Cetrizine HYDROCHride but every time i go to chemist I get Cetrizine  Dihydrochloride

    hi jim!

    I read your post today as the difficulty swallowing attacked again. It happened in 2016. I was eating fatty food and in the middle of chewing suddenly I could not swallow it. It feels like the food cannot go down into the throat. After 3 seconds I could manage the food out again.

    Since then, I cannot eat well. My anxiety makes it even worse. I had my doctor tested for allergy but It came out clear. I lost weight. I'm desperately looking for a solution. Now I just took cetirizine tablet and let see if it helps. How long does the effect take? I haven't eaten anything, only drinking water. I'm hungry but cannot eat anything sad

    Thanks for reading this post smile

      So, one hour after I took antihistamine I noticed that it doesn't help. I felt like I cannot breathe because of the lump in my throat. Maybe I have a hypersensitivity to antihistamines. I have acid reflux, so maybe it makes the symptom even worse.

      I know this is an old post but did you ever find a solution? I am struggling with this for 10 months following my bout with covid. Is it a nerve issue? Thank you .

    I've been battling with Globus Sensation since the age of 5, I know its connected to my anxiety as It has always been bad at times of high stress. luckily i have not spent the last 14 years with this constantly, but it has certainly been the biggest challenge I have ever faced in my life. After a tough battle with my anxiety around 2019 to late 2020, I seemed to be majorly on track and I was doing great. Besides a small blip in April 2021, I have been so good the past year or so, so there is proof that it can and does get better. Part of this was due to my support circle which I am very fortunate with, and also to taking the anti depressant sertraline. I went through my A Level exams completely fine and settled into Uni really well, and I was shocked my globus didn't come back. Fast forward to early March 2022, I had to take some antibiotics for an infection, and A day into taking them, I wake up, have my breakfast, ready to go into uni for a lecture, and then I get completely smacked in the face with extremely bad globus sensation. Unfortunately mine has always made it feel like I want to gag, which makes eating and drinking incredibly difficult as well as even talking when it's really bad. This has genuinely been the bane of my existence and I just want it all to stop, when the feeling is especially bad, I find it hard to focus on anything but it and its also very difficult to leave my room. What's annoying is that my anxiety can also be triggered by the thought of globus and the feeling, and when its bad even the textures of materials can make it worse. I had a small patch during the last two weeks where I was starting to regain some normality, but I've gone up a dose on Sertraline and Im feeling the side effects sadly so as I write this I feel horrendous and like a shadow of myself. I'm hoping that the sertraline keeps working and gets me running again.

    I've seen some people talking about antihistamines and im tempted to try and although im doing everything I can to get my anxiety to go away, but even when Im okay mentally now, the feeling just drags me back into a hole. I have just been prescribed a course of beta blockers but I am nervous to start them as I know they can make you wheezy, and I already have quite shallow breaths due to globus.

    It's annoying there is so little known about this condition and it's been nice to see that I am not alone, although im sure we are all affected in different ways. Like I said it's gotten better before, but that was back when I lived at home, now I live by myself, and luckily im still in constant contact with family who support me when it gets dark, but I need to function and take responsibility for myself, which is proving violently difficult at the moment. But yeah I don't even know if anyone will read this, but if you do let me know, even just talking about it can help in ways, and in the unlikely event that anyone has found a shocking magical cure apart from alcohol (which is nice for a bit, the next morning, not good) do let me know.
