Swallowing problems, anxiety?

Hi there, I'm in the midst of a big health anxiety flare up that has jumped from one thing to the next, but over the past 3 weeks it's been conditions like MND that I've convinced myself that I've got.

I've currently got some swallowing problems that came up 2 weeks ago now, I was eating my lunch and then a bit got stuck in my throat, I wasn't choking but it took a few swallows to get it down, then I started catastrophizing as to thinking I have MND, since then it feels like food is stuck in my throat whenever I swallow, and if I don't swallow twice I'm going to choke. Also I feel that my speech is slurring, but no-one has mentioned it, or noticed it so I think that may be in my head.

It also feels like with every swallow I'm swallowing mucus from the top of my nose like when you have a cold and snort it down.I t also feels like when I'm swallowing saliva it gets stuck, but then when I try to bring it back up there is barely anything there. I'm really worried, and constantly breaking down in tears thinking I've got a couple of years left to live, I'm only 18 and this should be the last thing on my mind. Wondering if anyone else has had similar issues. .

Thanks for any help if advance, really struggling through the period.

Thanks for the response, puts my mind slightly at ease knowing that these are also common anxiety symptoms.

With regards to my GP, I've had a blood test which came back totally normal, he tested my facial nerve strength which involved my puffing my cheeks out, checking my tongue because it twitches at rest, trying to pull my eyes open while scrunching my face up, and put his fingers under my neck when I swallowed.

All of these were normal, and after the blood test results came back he put it down to anxiety. I'm currently seeing a private therapist which is helping, but I've just convinced myself that I have MND.

Am enjoying the therapy sessions, from a mental standpoint they make me feel far less bad about my situation, and after a therapy session I do feel on top of the world, but after a few hours I notice my symptoms again and think that I'll be dead within a few years, or in an awful way.

If I get through this and it turns out to be completely benign anxiety I'll be shocked at just how physical health anxiety can be, but I can't see past my mind saying "how can this all be anxiety", but then my other half is saying "if you didn't go to the hospital 5 months ago with an optical migraine none of this would have happened".

Thanks again for your responses, and people please do post here with similar experiences, it would help me out MASSIVELY.
