Hello,
I have gone carefully through your report and I can understand your concern.
People diagnosed with Hashimoto thyroiditis have a higher risk than the normal population to develop thyroid nodules.
That is why I do recommend to my patients to do an ultrasound of the thyroid gland every 1-2 years.
Your symptoms suggest for a thyroid nodule but it should be confirmed with an ultrasound.
If the ultrasound results normal, than I would recommend you to visit an ENT specialist.
Hope the information will help.

Kind regards,
Dr.M.Guni

Hi
Thanks for your concern
Food regurgitation is causing this.But I would exclude Cardiac cause by an ECG.I would recommend small frequent less fat meals.Your physician may give you prokinetic drugs to improve symptoms.
Hope you are satisfied.
