I get what feels like esophagus closing off & on when my anxiety is high or I have alot of stress👎 Feels like I almost can't swallow! Very scary to me, only thing that helps some is drinking liquid, but when I'm in bed not sure what to do!

throat tightness is a symptom of gerd and it may feel hard to swallow but the main symptom of acid reflux is obviously the acid regurgiation, and if you don't experience that I would say that you are not experiencing gerd
