A member asked:

I have a severe globus sensation that gets worse after/during eating. i have lpr,gerd,gastritis.after starting ppis, how long until i feel relief?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

LPR: Unlike GERD, LPR may not respond to PPI medications. True globus has an anxiety and stress component and if it's a significant symptom for you, stress management may be helpful. Have you been tested for h pylori?
