Q: Do i suffer from GERD ? PLEASE HELP ME

I am not sure if I suffer from GERD or not. For the past two weeks I started to show the following symptoms: struggle to swallow, feeling that something is stuck in my throat, coughing, headache, discomfort in my chest(it feels like i cant breath and that some one is standing on it), it feels like i am burning up, soar throat. I also noticed that there are more than usual saliva in my mouth(it looks sticky and slimy). It happens at intervals like today and then 2 - 3 days again. It dont feel nice. I hope some one will be able to help me. Thanks

Being someone diagnosed with the most severe form of reflux, no that sounds nothing like GERD. I am not sure what it sounds like, maybe sinus infection, strept? You might want to go to the doctor. Good luck!
