ENT Specialist,  's  Response
Hello Ewan, what you are describing sounds like a bad case of reflux esophagitis. You should be thorough checked out by a doctor. It could also be because of stress and a fear of having cancer so a check up is very essential.
As an initial remedy, you could cut down on tea and coffee intake or spicy and fried foods, eat small portions at regular time intervals, avoid smoking and alcohol and drink plenty of water.
