I think I've had this feeling on occasion when I smoke. Now I know what it's called and can read up a bit on it.

Quite likely related to anxiety. Look into whatever is making you anxious: you might be able to fix it and then the physiological effects will go away.

It can also be GERD, which is caused in many cases by... anxiety.

Look into the diet before you look into meds.

I had this feeling for a couple of weeks prior to being sick last week. I noticed coffee and smoking aggravated it, but cool water helped alleviate it. When I was sick it started to go away and I also stopped smoking for a week. Kept up the coffee though. Not that my cold is over, that sensation has also disappeared. I also suffer from acid reflux quite often, but don't know if that played a role. Hope it clears up for you soon.

Quit the caffeine, and try an antacid for 4-6 weeks. This is a very common complaint, and may be due to GERD.

Seeing the ENT was a good decision. I offer this advice knowing that you have already seen the doctor and had an exam.
I would suggest changing or adding one variable at a time. Will identify where an issue lies with more certainty.

Better than your previous band name, Jars of Piss.

I'm kind of glad that one didn't pan out.
Very "Spinal Tap" of you my friend.
Let us know when Smell the Glove is released.

Fun fact: “Cans of Piss” was in the running when R.E.M. was still trying to settle on a name. 😎
Shhh ... others might learn something here.

My favorite Michael Stipe story: Scott Ian of Anthrax drunkenly ran into him while at a party. Not knowing what to say, he hit Michael hard in the arm and said "Everybody hurts, Michael" then walked away.
