A member asked:
Been having difficulty swallowing & metallic/copper taste in mouth. does this sound like gerd? some days it's worser than others.

Not likely: Globus sensation and anxiety tend to appear together. See an ENT doctor for laryngeal exam to r/o gerd.

Potential: This is potentially gerd. You should go to a gastroenterologist for baseline endocopy and if gerd you need a proton pump inhibitor such as Nexium (esomeprazole) or prilosec.
