In October I started feeling like I had a lump in my throat. Many trips to the doctor, testing for strep, treated for sinus infection no relief. Last month it peaked, very swollen vocal cords which had a spasm and cut off my air supply, started on prednisone, ENT said it is gerd started me on prevacid, two times a day, disolvable ones as I can't swallow pills. Last week the back of my tongue swelled hug, EMT's thought allergic reaction, doctor thought lingual tonsills? Waiting for an transnasal esophagoscopy which is not until the 11th of this month. At my pre-op appointment ENT doctor said swelling had gottten worse not better. Even on pred still have some swelling, (not as bad) have to take lorazepam about 30 minutes before eating to be able to swallow.
I just don't feel like the doctor is on the right course and don't know where else to go, he doesn't share very much information with me and of course, didn't warn me of all the bad things that could happen and did but now says they can happen again.
Where else should I be going what doctor's should I make an appointment with gastro? Allergist? Please help, scared and frustrated.
