Hello, For the last 5 and 1/2 months, I have been getting sore and burning sensations in my throat after various kinds of excersise. The more intense the excersise, the sooner the pain arrives.. For example, I get it after 8-10 minutes on the thread mill, and after 1 and 1/2 miles of biking... It this GERD (GER) or something else.....I am 55 years old and have a good medical history, except for having the same thing that Lance Armstrong had in 1986 (seminomae testicular cancer), got radiation treatments, and a clean bill of health.
