Short of breath, lump in throat, difficulty swallowing, cough daily for 6 mos. and getting worse. one dr. says reflux the other says ace inhibitor (angioedema). which is most likely given the symptoms?

Exam: If you failed treatment for reflux then it warrants further investigation like an endoscopy. At 6 mos with treatment, (proton pump inhibitors or h2blockers) , i think u should let your doctor know if its not working.
