Suggest Medication To Treat Globus?

I need the right specialist to treat globus which developed directly following an endoscopy ( doctor stretched my throat). I have already consulted with two different gastro doctors and have realized no relief from their recommendations - one recommended a.muscle relaxer and the other an anti depressant - and I can see neither is the answer. Can you help?

If all the findings including the CT scan of the throat and neck are normal, then only one can label this as psychological
