I hear what you're saying Scared at 18. I thought I had throat cancer besides tongue cancer. I felt like I had something caught in my throat. My surgeon told me it's acid reflux not throat cancer he scoped my throat, I'm taking Nexium. It cleared up within a few days. I never had a sour stomach all I had was a feeling something was caught in my throat. Also, if I miss a few days of not taking my meds that feeling comes back, I make sure I take it first thing in the morning.

If your ENT says it's GERD and gives you meds take it don't mess around with it.
