Throat Problems
Hi all, I haven't been on here in ages. I was working six days a week so have been too shattered for anything lol. I am now only working two days a week which is great!
About 3-4 years ago, I visited my doctor for something and mentioned that my throat felt swollen. He had a feel about and said it was just my saliva glands so I thought no more about it. It has never gone away and the last few weeks seems to be getting worse and more uncomfortable. I actually feel as if something is stuck in my throat and constricting it. I don't have trouble swallowing, drinking etc. I have made an appt to see my GP but can't get in until next week.
I am just wondering if anyone else has had anything like this. I have just been reading up and found that RA can also affect your throat too, and long term use of Methotrexate can cause serious problems too! Quite concerned now!

Were you ever a smoker? If so, go get it checked. Could be nothing but also could need addressed and scanned.
