AIBU to worry silent acid reflux symptoms could actually be allergies?

Over the last couple of years I have started experiencing silent acid reflux, which for me feels like my throat being tight and sore and feeling like I can't swallow properly. I don't get the associated indigestion and sometimes have a headache and feel tired. Typical triggers are foods with high acidity like mango or smoothies.

However, every time this happens I feel concerned its an allergic reaction? Does anyone else experience this?

I’ve had that before at times of high stress. Didn't associate it with allergies. Worth changing your diet though in case it is diet related so cutting out alcohol ( if applicable ), reduce dairy etc etc.
