>Besides the T3 will they run some check-ups on you?

He felt around and was certain it was a particular muscle that is peripherally involved in swallowing.

> What is the cause of this condition?

He said cramps and spasms happen when muscles are stressed or you are a bit dehydrated.

> Did you get an appointment to see a specialist? What will be the follow-up on this?

He said only to see my family doctor if it continued. The pain went away on Saturday afternoon. This was only after taking 3 T3's at once (at the advice of my wife). This seemed to calm the pain enough to allow the muscle to uncramp.
