Have Lump On Throat, Swelling, Blurred Vision, High BP, Hot And Sweaty Hands. Taken Nitroglycerin. Tests Normal
I am a 52 yr old man. I had a lump come up on my throat. It went away by that night. Then 2 days later, it came up again even bigger but had moved up onto my check. It also swells up some behind the ear on that side. The lump came up and I started rubbing it and within 5 minutes I started having blurred vision, BP 168/112 P 142 my hands became extremely hot and sweaty both my eyes became very very red my face was white as a ghost. I took a nitroglycerin and it calmed everything down some. Then several hours later, it started all over so my wife made me go to ER. They did a EKG, drew blood, and did a chest xray. They said it was all normal and sent me home. The knot comes and goes and was not really bad when I went to ER. Then the next day, it swelled up again and everything started again. I went to the ER and they did the same test-said all normal. I just do not feel good. I am out of breath all the time. Something is not right and I dont know if everything is related but it started at the same time. My mother died at 45 and my dad had his first heart attack at my age.
HI Thank for asking to HCM I can understand your pain but you need to to worry about it it will go away soon just bring down your anxiety level, stop the bad ideas which are having in your mind, highly stress mental condition always create lump like feeling in throat and some time increase the acid secretion, I would advise you to try proton pump inhibitor (Omeprazol 40 mg ) just one tab at evening time will give good result, be in touch with HCM for further help, have good day.
