Can't stop burping. Lump in throat. No other symptoms.

As far as I can tell, this seems to be GERD, but except for the lump in my throat, there are no other symptoms.

I can't associate it with any food or activity, as it seems to be constant.

It defies logic that I would have this much gas in me! My body must be continuously producing it somehow.

I've tried Gas-X, this seems to do nothing. Yoga sometimes forces a burp that's so big, I think "that must be it," but there's always more.

I can't associate it with any recent lifestyle changes, as it's not a recent thing. It's been going on for years.

I do burp more after I wake up, or get up from relaxing, but I suspect that this is the gas being released by movement, not an actual aggravation of the underlying condition.

Sorry you're feeling so uncomfortable. I have been diagnosed with silent acid reflux ie I don't actually feel any acid coming up. My symptoms are similar to yours. I can get quite windy at times and often have a feeling like a lump in my throat also an awful taste or a burning feeling in my mouth. I've modified my diet a bit and I take Gaviscon extra last thing at night.

It sounds like LPR (laryngopharyngeal reflux) also. That would explain the throat symptoms (known as globus sensation).
