Stress and anxiety are felt to be common causes of globus. I assume after 12 weeks of herniated disc symptoms, you've been quite stressed. Perhaps even worrying about need for surgery plays a role. Throat irritation from medications can cause or aggravate globus. I'm not sure if codeine is playing a role in your case.
