Question:
I don't know what it is, i cant wear a necklace, my hair down or a collared or high top, if i do wear one of them i start dryreaching, especially in the cold weather... it feels as though someone has their hands around my neck, its been happening for the last 2 years, and the symptoms just came on suddenly one day. Its really starting to worry me and my fiance... i don't know if these symptoms can be included but i also feel exhausted, beyond the point of feeling like im going to pass out, at certain points in the day, especially after food. I get 8 hours or more a night and i still wake up exhausted, and on weekends no matter how much i sleep i just cant seem to get a satisfying nights sleep. I have poor concentration and if i'm thinking of something i can easily forget it within a minute of thinking it. I've looked on the net of possible causes, but they all seem way too extreme for me, and kinda scary. Can someone help me??
Answers:
Have you had a thyroid checkup? I had a goiter because of not getting enough iodine in my diet. You get that from salt and some foods, such as shellfish ect. I was young when this happened to me. it can give you a choking sensation because its located right by your windpipe and if its enlarged it will cause these sensations. Feel in your throat right above the little hole above your collar bone is it large or tender? it can cause your problem. nodules in your throat can cause this too. Nothing can subsitute for good checkup. Go to a good throat , ear and nose specialist, get your tonsils and adenoids checked as well, you don't have to have a sore throat tohave tonsil enlargement. Get that good checkup! Good Health To You!

This sounds like it might be an allergy/immune problem. It's common for those to make you feel tired and like you are choking. You definitely need to see a doctor.
Walking on sunshine nailed it. I have had a choking feeling all my life though and I had to figure it out myself - food allergies. I still can't wear anything tight around my neck- or my stomach.The exhaustion thing makes it more likely thyroid. Good luck.
