A member asked:

Have had chronic inflammation in throat for 6 months. what blood tests would you recommend to find out what is causing this? not reflux or post n drp

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need for examination: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without examining you. You would need a doctor to order blood tests anyway, so please see your doctor for an evaluation and proper selection of tests based on findings from history and physical findings.
