Sensation as something stuck in the throat

Hello All Experts:
I have a sensation that something is stuck in my throat, and i have cough by force to clear my thorat. This forceful cough has caused lots of problems from as i have started feeling pain in my chest. I discussed this with my doctor and he prescribed NASONEX spray which did not work at all, i went to see him again and he then gave me prevacid and he said that i might be suffering from GERD. Prevacid gave me a little relief but i am still having this trouble. I do not know it is the mucus stuck in mt throat or if GERD is causing this but i am in the pain. I have trouble breathing sometime and feel embarrased when in meetings as i have to forcefully cough after every 5-10 minutes.....please help me.....i have quit smoking because i thought it might be smoking aggravating the problem but still the condition is same. I get sour thraot very easily and sometimes have dry cough and i do spit some mucus and phelum as well....i am very confused if what is going on with me. These are all the symptoms, please prescribe something....help me please

Thank you rishimba for your response. Please find my detailed response to your questionnaire given below.

Age: 34
Sex: Male

1. Describe your main suffering?
I feel that there is something stuck in the back of my throat. I dont know if it is phleum or mucus because i have to focefully cough to clear my thoroat, otherwise i feel uncomfortable. Since, it is a long time problem, i now suffer pain in my chest as well as when i forcefully cough all the pressure goes to my chest. And in the morning when i spit phelum it comes with blood, sometimes the blood looks really fresh like fresh bleeding and sometimes it is black, dirty blood clots.


2. What other physical sufferings do you have in your body?
Normally i dont have any other physical sufferings, i am a healthy person except that i used to have a frequesnt urination problem. Which i still have but not very serious. I was havig difficulty with my sexual activity as well when i was suffering from frequent urination, sexual desire was there but i was getting poor performance in terms of erection, sometimes my erction would simply go during the intercourse. And before the sexual activity my heart will start pounding, and i will feel like i wont be able to do it perfectly. I am just sharing this to give you a detailed idea about my all sufferings so that you could give me a good advice.


3. What mental sufferings / feelings do you have associated with your physical sufferings?
Mentally, i am upset most of the time, lots of problems, financial, family and other problems. And thats why i immediately get hyper and shout at my kids and family, which is painful but out of my control.

4. What exactly do you feel when you are at your worst?

I feel that even if i cough forcefully, i am not able to clear my throat and then i get scared and i feel difficulty in breating and uneasiness.

5. When did it all start? Can you connect it to any past event or disease?

Well, it is very long time probelm but i think smoking is the major cause of problem, as when i have quit smoking now, problem is still there but not to that extent. I think smoking has caused some abnormalities in my throat whether throat congestion or wahtever but it is in my throat. My tonsils are bigger than usual, doctors say and i get sour throat very easily and quickly if i eat sour food like sour pickle or tangarine.


6. Which time of the day you are worst?

Problem is usually all day but in the morning after the breakfast it starts and usually gets worst after i eat something like after breakfast, lunch and dinner.

7. What are the things which aggravate your suffering and which are those which ameliorate the same?

Eating something sour or even normal foods gives me feeling of this lump in throat and if i drink black coffee or great tea it gives me a little relief.

8. Do your think your sufferings have relation to any external stimuli (like, change of place) or any internal biological changes in the body, like, menses (in females)?

No, i do not think it is related with place because i lived in several countries but the probelm was always there. Let me tell you one more thing, i am allergic to dust as if i am in any dusty place my problem gets worst and i feel totally uncomfortable. But even there is no dust problem is still there.

9. When do you feel better, during hot weather or cold weather, humid or dry weather?
Its the same in all kind of weather but warm air like heating from car makes it worst.

10. Describe your general mental set up? Are you Moody, Arrogant, Mild, Agreeable Changeable, Nervous, Suspicious, Easily offended, Quiet, Arguing, Irritating, Lazy etc.

I am moody, emotional,agreeable but very suspicious and easily offended because of my sensitive mentality. I am lazy as well, once i enter the house i do not want to go out of the house and just want to sit and relax.

- How do you feel before or during a thunderstorm?

I like thunderstorm, rainy season is my favorite season. I like rain and balck clouds, i do not like sun, i always want that there are black clouds and rain and dark.

Yes i do, and i always want attention of people. I want people to think symepthatic about me as i have gone through lots of difficulties in life.

- Are you sensitive to external stimuli like smell, noise, light etc?

I am sensitive to noise especially when i am reading or when i want to be alone, if i hear even a small noise, i get upset. thats why my kids play around the house i get upset.

- Do you have any typical habit or gesture like nail biting, causeless
weeping, talking to one self etc?

I always think back in my mind and talk to myself without movement of lips like in thoughts only. I sometimes start punching my legs slowly when thinking about something. No nail biting etc.

- How do you feel about your friends, family, your children and especially your husband / wife?
I love my family and care about them. I always have a fear of losing them thats why i am upset when my family goes out in the park or my kids go to school. I always have a fear what if something goes wrong with them. then i feel that fear in me physically like i start shaking or start taliking to myself. I have fear that what if my wife starts cheating on me, what will i do, i will die if she cheats on me coz its unbearbale. Like these kind of thoughts.

No, my sexual desire is too much, more than what i am getting.

20. Do you have any strange, peculiar or unusual symptom or feelings? How are you different from others?

21. What medications have been taken earlier by you to treat the diseases and do you have any particular symptom surfacing after the medication?

Doctor thinks that i am suffering from GERD and they prescribed PREVACID. I stared using Nat Phos 6x and arnica Montana 30 ch (wet dose) after reading the post by Joe Livera but it gives me strange feelings, i feel dizzy and uncomfortable so i have stopped talking this homeoptahic remedy. Currently i am using PREVACID only which has given me a little relief somehow. Dr. Deshlok prescribed Arsencinc Alb 10 m once a week, 6 pills or 2 drops in 1/2 cup of water

Kali sulp. 12x 4 tablets 3 times a day

I have not started this remedy so far. let me see what does your expertise say and then i will decide what to do.


22. What major diseases are running in your family?
Highy blood pressure, and heart attack

I am 5,7 with a very normal 63 kg weight. I am smart and handsome person, black hair, normal physical appearance rather i look younger than my age. Peope say i do not look older than 27 however i am 34. So my physical appearance is impressive.

take a few doses of NUX VOM 200C at 4 hours interval. six doses maximum.
 
rishimba last decade
Hi Rishimba, thanks for your reply but you have not explained the quantity of doses. Like how many tablets at 4 hours interval. Can i take 3 doses one day and 3 on the other day. Please explain the quantity of dose, and how to take them before or after meal, with or without water, chew or swallow. I shall be waiting for your reply. Thanks
 
M Malik last decade
one dose would contain typically 3 drops of the remedy with quarter cup of water. sip it slowly and try to move it around the mouth as much as possible.

do not take any food one hour before or after taking the dose.

do not take raw onion, garlic, coffee for next 7 days.

take 3 doses on a day and 3 on the next day but if you see some improvements, stop the rest of the doses.

Rishi ..pl. think of Phosphorus also.

Malik...pl. get a chest x-ray done...blood in the sputum ...in an extreme case can mean TB. Rule out the possibility.

Best wishes,

if NUX fails, PHOS is my second choice. quite a many symptoms are pointing to phos.

i decided NUX over PHOS to open the case as he was a smoker and fond of eating meat.

NUX would take care of any affections caused by excess intake of tobacco.

malik,

please get a chest x-ray done to be on the safe side.
 
rishimba last decade
Yes Dear Rishi..I fully agree with your line of thinking.

Best wishes

Thank you so much Rishimba and Pankaj Varma. I did my chest X-ray a year ago and test for TB as well because it was requirement for my immigration to Canada and they both went fine. But for your satisfaction, i would do the X-ray again. Thanks for your help and concern. I am going to buy Nux Vomica today but i would aslo like to give you one of my concern which is about Nux Vomica, i found out that this is a very poisionus remedy and overdose can cause death also. And thats why i wanted to be sure of the dose. I hope 2 drops in a quarter cup of water is a safe dose. I shall keep you informed. Thanks

Nux Vomica 200c..(a homeopathic form) is safe and thousands of people around the world take it.

PANKAJ VARMA last decade
Hi Pankaj, i am originally from Pakistan(Islamabad) but migrated to Toronto, Canada from USA (Michigan). Weather in Michigan (USA) and Toronto (Canada) is pretty much the same i,e is VERY COLD. Islamabad is not very cold but in winter temperature does reach 1 degree. But this has been my problem no matter where i go. But i notice its worst in warm places or during summers and especially if i am close to any dusty place, where there is lots of dust. Blood in my phelum or mucus was long before i took the test for TB and my tests were negaitive. No history of TB in the family or in areas where i lived. But i would still go for a test for my satisfaction. I am going to get NUX Vomica and if it did not work i shall let you guys know. Thanks
