Ok so for the past year I have been having this feeling that my throat is closing up. It only happens on occasion and its not a "lump" feeling the back of my throat actually does this movement where it feels like its closing it only happens for a split second I feel like I cant breathe and then goes back to normal. Could this be a thyroid condition because thats where it happens is right in the area of where my thyroid. I check my pulse when it happens to see if my heart skips a beat and I can only count probably twice that it has palpitated or skipped a beat. When it happens it hurts and I just dont know what it is and its scaring the hell outta me! I do suffer from panic attack disorder which I'm taking meds that help me alot! but this feeling keeps coming back thats why I dont know if it has something to do with my disorder or not PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!
