Have you gotten your thyroid checked? It can be that. Do you have stomach issues with acid? Gerd can cause this too. If not, anxiety can cause the lump in throat feeling. I try to remember that if I am able to talk, I most likely am not short of breath or have my throat shutting off oxygen.

I feel short of breath as well a lot of the time. Tell your doctor this is not going away and be persistent for any other tests available. You just gotta keep being tough and hang in there, sometimes it is about knowing the synptoms are there, but accepting them and try the best you can to live life because anxiety can aggravate it more
