Tight throat and hay fever

Religiously for the past 3 or so years around this time of year my throat starts to feel swollen and tight, swallowing becomes harder and there is sometimes a click, but it never happens outside spring/summer, at least not to any extent that I can remember. I do suffer from rather acute hay fever too which affects my nose and eyes mainly.

When I eat or drink anything in relatively large portions at one time it also semi-regurgitates and I become gassy; some really attractive ****, I know, come and get me ladies.

I read online (always a reliable source of fear for constant hypochondriacs) that anxiety can cause this to flare up too, and that would make sense since I'm waiting for exam results and absolutely bricking it with worry.

Is it just a combination of hay fever and worry or should I be worried?
