I read on here that someone had bulbar onset with a lump in their throat. for the past about a week i too have had a "lump" in my throat. I do have a tiny bit of sinus drainage but I can never seem to clear this. It almost feels like when i breath through my nose air blows in one tiny little spot on the back of my throat. I can swallow fine and my tounge is fine and my voice is strong but this has me worried. i keep wantiong to hark up a lugie or something. I do forget about it for a whil;e but it is always there. I am a 31 year old male and scared ####less about als!!! I started worring about it a few months ago in my arms/legs but now I am worried about it in my throat.
i am scared my palate has falled from lack of muscle. Also sometimes when i breath out through my nose its like something falls in the way of my escaping air and it blocks it. If I sniff hARD IT PUSHES WHEATEVER IT IS BACK INTO PLACE AND THE AIR CAN PASS OUT. i AM KINDA FAT TOO. Sorry about the caps lock. Please help!!!!!!
