Throat Pain Posted: 11-23-06 10:40am
For the past 3 weeks, i've noticed a
slight pain in my throat when I swallow.
Yesterday, out of nowhere, I suddenly
could barely swallow. It felt like there
was a baseball in my throat, just to the
left of my windpipe. It was very
difficult to swallow for about 3 hours.
Then it gradually went back to the way it
has been for the past 3 weeks. I don't
have any trouble breathing, just
swallowing. I have just started taking
lexapro for anxiety recently (about 3
weeks ago), but my doctor assures me there
is no connection to the drug and symptoms.
