To All

The following is my personal Globus Solution, not a cure but a solution that makes my life bearable again.

I'm 65 and have had Globus symptoms for the last 10 years or so. Sometimes as bad as 2 to 3 times a week and sometimes so bad I had to take time off work. I went through all the medical tests as I'm sure most of you had as well. This included Hypnosis, Natural Path Medicine and even Bowen Therapy with no positive results.

One of my last medical test was for allergies. No obvious allergy was found however the Doctor prescribed for me APO-Montelukast 10 MG once a day. (it's described as a asthma medication but I have no asthma symptoms). I was also prescribed TEVA- Famotidine 20 MG twice a day for any stomach issues related to Globus. I have been on these Rx's for about a year now and my Globus episodes now only occur once every 3 to 4 weeks and usual a very mild cases. I have also now added a supplement which has also improved my condition, Magnesium Bisglycinate Complex 200 MG once a day. This helps with muscle cramps to which Globus can be in our throats. On any given day if I feel some cramping in my throat I will massage just below the Adams Apple and the cramping goes away in seconds.

This may not be a solution for all but this combination is working for me. Maybe it will help someone out there as well. I would also encourage anyone to consult their Doctor before proceeding with any of the medications described above.

Good Luck!
