Food sensitivity?: Perhaps you have a food sensitivity to something. Ask you doc to consider giving you a food sensitivity blood test. It's quick and easy. Some foods in some folks can irritate or close the throat. Other situations are not as extreme but uncomfortable. The very best to you!

Every 2ish yrs for the last 10, I have an allergic reaction to something, but the cause is never determined nor clear. Angioedema ruled out last time. Could this be something other than an allergy? Symptoms: tight throat, extreme hives, itchy tongue.

Can GERD give you tight throat sensation and choking feeling sensation? I went to the ER since I thought food was stuck in my throat, but they never checked the inside, but said I can eat, drink and talk. Which means most likely nothing is there?
