Does anyone else with GERD feel like they are swallowing cotton balls when they swallow? If so what is it and why?

When my anxiety is bad , I feel like I've got a lump in my throat when I swallowed! It really scared me but now I know it's just anxiety kicking in and my mouth goes really dry. Drink plenty and try to relaxes xx
Are you taking any medications for your GERD?
I just take over the counter medication for it because I have no insurance right now to get anything else
I hope you feel better soon. It is rather trial and error with GERD especially with diet.
Try not to lay down with three hours of eating. Raising the head of the bed may help. Even something so easy as a pillow underneath the mattress. Also try to avoid going to sleep on your right side, apparently it is more likely to help the stomach contents rise.
Hope this helps. Good luck
