YES, that is exactly what I have been feeling over the years too and didn't know

what it was. I have some antibodies on labs done past summer, although it was

within normal limits of the lab. However, at times I just feel icky and have

mild flu-like symptoms, and then my throat will feel like a lump inside

(swelling sensation) and sometimes pills get stuck or I can feel the cartilage

rubbing when I swallow.

But I thought that by taking enough thyroid so that the TSH is just about

eliminated, there shouldn't be any Hashi attack??? My TSH is 0.07.
