I had these same symtoms ,coughing,clearing throat,felt like something stuck in my throat,difficulty swallowing, slight ear ache sometimes.slightly swollen glands sometimes, etc. Did the Upper GI, no Reflux, No Gerd, Then did a endoscopy all the way to stomach and took tissue samples of esophagus and found out a high count of white blood cells and called it possible eosinophilic esophagitis. Basically an allergy to something that passes through it and causes irritation. Prescribed Flovent which is basically Flonase steriods sprayed in your throat or stronger allergy pills. Seems to of worked. This was done through Atlanta Gastroenterology doctors.This is not a diagnoses for you just what happened to me. Good Luck
