Pain in the back of throat

Hi everyone, thought I would finally post this question since the issue has not resolved itself as I was hoping it might.

Did anyone else experience pain in the throat after surgery? It is hard to describe what I am feeling but I will try.

I am 9 weeks post-op and have felt this pain in the back of my throat ever since surgery, especially when I lay on my back. When I go to bed at night and am lying on my back I can feel it. If I breathe deeply the pain intensifies. I had a bad experince a couple of weeks ago when I went for a massage. I started out on my stomach and everything was fine but when I turned onto my back, the pain in my throat was very bad and I immediately got very nauseous. I sat up immediately and managed to control the urge to spew everywhere.

I have been discussing this with my surgeon and he has never heard of this but is still working on figuring it out. Has anyone else ever experienced this?

Thanks for listening.
