When I get severe bloating, I get a "pulling" effect at the top of my collar bone and my throat gets thick with mucous. Feels like someone putting their finger in the front of my throat down low. Allergist said he sees 7-8 people a day with throat mucous. Says to take mucinex and zyrtec. Mucous is better but now it hurts in my esophagus when I swallow food. Had endoscopy, mild grastritis and mild esophagitis. Still bloat up. Anyone want to discuss this?
