There's actually something called a globus I think which is a medical term for a lump which forms in your throat when you are overly stressed about things. When my parents divorced when I was nine, I had the same thing myself and I couldn't speak more than a few words at a time for weeks because I thought I was going to V* but it is related to stress and anxiety and it doesn't mean you'll V* as it is anxiety related.

Ok, so I have been cutting down my meds... do you reckon it could be from that? Plus im flying in a few days and am well worried about it... Thanks so much xxx

I don't know if cutting down your meds could be to blame unless you're subconciously worried about it but the stress from worrying about flying could definitely be responsible. At least you know it won't be sick from it though [img]smileys/smilies_01.gif[/img]
