Yes, many of us have throat issues because of GERD. It can cause all kinds of weird feelings, from what you are describing, to a lump in the throat, to very bad pain and spasms. Gerd can also affect your breathing and aggravate asthma or COPD, or just make you cough.
So you will need to follow the diet, raise the head of your bed, and take whatever meds the doctor prescribes. Together those 3 things should help a lot. Hugs, Sue
