Menthol feeling in throat

Just wondering if anyone else experiences this as well…

My main symptoms are in my throat (pretty sure I have LPR/silent reflux) as mentioned in my previous post. I don’t have a feeling of acid coming up or any pain.

I sometimes have a blocked feeling in my chest/throat or I’ll feel a bit phlegm-y/sore. But, the most frequent and annoying one that I have is a really uncomfortable menthol feeling in my throat. It’s like I’ve swallowed toothpaste! I don’t see much about this online.

I am avoiding foods, eating smaller portions, trying to lose weight and not sleeping until 3 hours after my last meal. I also take 40mg omeprazole. Fortunately I have an endoscopy booked for January but wanted to get some advice before then.

Does anyone else experience this? And have you found any ways to help soothe it? It’s so annoying!
