Pain between shoulder blades, sensation of lump in throat and constipation
Posted , 4 users are following.
I've been experiencing problems for the last 4 months. I saw my GP and was diagnosed with H Pylori, vitamin b12 deficiency and folate deficiency. Ive been treated for these but I'm still experiencing the feeling of a lump in my throat, gurgling from my throat & from my stomach, pain between my shoulder blades and especially the upper left side of my back and constipation. I've had an endoscopy and colonoscopy done and both seemed fine but I'm waiting for biopsy results for the endoscopy. I paid to have an ultrasound of my throat and it was clear except for a slightly enlarged thyroid. I'm now on eosomoperozle 20mg twice a day for 4 weeks. Has anyone else experienced anything similar? I don't know where to turn to next as I feel I've exhausted every avenue now. I also paid to visit a gastroenterologist.

Hi, you might find this reassuring because I believe it can be anxiety related / induced or muscle spasm / nerves related as well. I have had this very same symptoms often (I'm 22), even very bitter, acidic taste in my mouth but usually only when I think I have them and I focus on them for a little while. Try to break out of it and see if its correlated in any way to your mood, notice if you feel it more when you might think you're having them, or when your mood is down (especially if you are generally worried about it and you know the symptoms that people feel normally). You probably don't have this when your mood is up or when you do something that gives you positive emotions. I often try to fight it with my brain by forcing myself to believe that I don't have anything and that I am making it up and in a couple of seconds the symptoms go away fully, or I try to redirect the pain and imagine I am feeling it somewhere else in the body. If this works then you should see an immediate pattern between the way you think (discouraged, negative, anxious) with the level of discomfort you're experiencing physically, especially if you consciously focus/ ruminate on it too much. This made the symptoms go away completely for me as it seems that your brain is inducing either muscles spasms or it triggers the nerves around that side of your body that produces the sensations that you're describing. So notice if that makes it go way, if it its that then its anxiety related, I know it feels very real but there's actual studies that show how you body becomes more sensitive (mentally) and then gives you these sensations or triggers some of the nerves/ muscles that make you feel this way. But please do the necessary medical investigations either way if necessary, even for your piece of mind! Please try it, its been quite a revelation for me! All the best!
