Hi Maggie. I am actually going through the same thing. I feel like there is a constant lump in my throat. I feel like food sometimes gets stuck there too. I've been to my doctor, and she seems to think it is nothing. She wants to put me on anti anxiety medication. I had an X-ray test, and am currently waiting for the results. This is all I can think about. It is consuming my life right now. I am scared I really do have something in my throat. Hopefully it is nothing. Just know you are not the only one.

My doctor thought I may have this and sent me to ear nose and throat. Turned out I had lrp or silent reflux . Have you been referred to a specialist?

Try to relax do meditation and breathing exercises. Be good to yourself take care.
