Finally couldn't take it anymore and went to the urgent care by my job. The doctor said from what he could see and hear he thinks it might be acid reflux bothering my throat.

He told me it hasn't gotten worse or painful for having it for 7 days so if it was something really bad it would have showed up by now. He Rx Prilosec 1 month Rx.

I start tomorrow morning. Anyone take this? Does it help? He said if it doesn't help them to go to a throat specialist and if that checks out it is the anxiety. Oh man 😕

Jd,

Great job on being proactive and going in today.;)

Just take this one step at a time, and see what happens in the next week...

...reflux/Gerd is common, and could very well be the culprit here.

If not, you take the next step, but for now, just focus on this one.

Keep us posted,

S.C.
