Just wondering as everything I read says the throat being affected is uncommon, I had a barium swallow a few weeks ago as I could feel a lump in my throat, the swallow showed up bone spurs (osteophytes) in my neck.
If you have them in the neck are they affecting your throat?
My throat is not painful just an uncomfortable feeling but my neck is very painful at the minute.
Not on any meds at the moment as I want to see a specialist and get proper info.
Best joke I ever read, "With that information and a diagnosis of spondylosis, your doctor can develop a treatment plan‏" or back in reality totally ignore you. Is ok I have a sense of humour and a boxing glove, not defeated yet.
