Lump in the throat and white tongue

I have these problems for the past seven years most likely due to GERD and Hiatus hernia. My homeopath suggested Pulsatilla with no improvement and now Ignatia 20CC also with no improvement. I was wondering if there are any other remedies that might be helpfull.

My throat is so dry it feels like closing. It gets better if swallow with liquid, but it is sore, rough and never right. It feels worse on the left hand side
Thank you.
