    Yes it's very common, typically it's either reflux or anxiety, sometimes both. Regardless it feels the same in either case

      I am suffering with health anxiety so I know there is an element of anxiety here, but I have constant gurgling in my throat, tasting lemons and getting full very easily which then gives me stomach ache. So fed up of feeling like this and would love it to go now!!

    Yes Fiona

    Tons of mucous constantly but you know what has help?

    Olive oil !

    I've been taking 1 tbsp in the morning with an empty stomach 

    When I take it feels like is burning my throat when is going down.

    After a few days the mucous is almost gone, not even mentioned that my stomach is better too.

    Give it a try.

    You only live once!

    I've been suffering from globus for a year, ever since I had my thyroid removed. It's neither anxiety nor acid reflux in my case. It's has only gotten worse, without any relief. It affects my life in ways I never thought possible. I'm on the edge. I hope you find relief soon.

      I have a lump sensation in my throat 24/7. Also, a constant tickle. I have been to so many doctors and , so far, none have been able to help. I have tried just about everything possible, but nothing seems to help. I have really bad allergies that  make the symptom worse. I don't know what else to try.

      That does sound difficult. Mine is like that too except I have constant throat clearing and almost sensation makes me feel like I am going to gag. 

      It will go.... it has to!!! Hopefully it will go as quickly as it started

      It truly is an awfully problem. The only thing I've found to give me any relief is a saline nasal spray. It doesn't take it away but makes it easier in the mornings. I'm definitely going to try the olive oil suggestion above, can't hurt at least!
