    First, don't freak out.  As you can see this is not an uncommon problem, which unfortunately I personally can attest to.  As long as you don't have difficulty swallowing, it is benign.  Try some relaxation techniques, especially for the throat.  You can find any number of exercises for this on youtube.  As far as the sick feeling, see if you can pinpoint if there is anything you're eating, or any changes in your eating habits that may have affected you recently.
