Hi guys my main anxiety is that i get a tite throat feeling, as if my throat is going to close up , in severe cases i get this strange click everytime i swallow, its really unpleasant and scary! I thought id found the answer na dthat it was GERD i have actually been taking losec 20mg daily for this and it did seem to calm right down. however its come back! I have stopped taking the losec so im going to start using it again too see if i can get some releif, I also found this link with many other people who also suffer from this feeling. I take xanax also to help relax me and keep me calm, i just thought id add this as a thread so maybe anyone here who suffers from this can get some sort of comfort knowing it IS ANXIETY and that our throats are not going to swell up and choke us! I know that when its happening sometimes words of comfort dont actually help much but i,ll post it anyway

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
