Its kind of hard to describe. but ive been experiencing it for about maybe 5 days now. You know that feeling you get when your throat feels "gaggy" like you want to gag but you dont have to. I have that and I dont know what it is. Perhaps its just inflammation? Its in like the upper throat. like right under the chin area where the glands are. i dont have any swollen lymphnodes around there or anything
I never had this before. Ive been treating for a month and a half
anyone else experience this during treatment? I have been sneezing a bit lately so i seem to maybe be fighting a cold or getting a cold. dont know if that would cause a gaggy feeling in the throat tho

I once got esophagitis from the oral abx-- this doesn't sound exactly the same (I felt like I had a marble stuck in my throat) but maybe it's a similar side effect?

No it doesnt feel like a marble in my throat or anything. its just that gaggy feeling. its not even technically in the throat. its more in the back of the mouth kind of
or like where the glands are in your neck.

Possibly swollen glands??? Or a lyme symptom.
I get a tightness in my throat or it feels like my throat is closing up. Feels like my glands are swollen, but I don't think they are. This has been a lyme symptom from the very beginning. Maybe the gag feeling is similar.
Could be a cranial nerve issue caused by lyme.

My glands are not sore, but they do feel swollen. Doc felt them and says they are not swollen. Therefore I feel for me that its a nerve issue.
