I have been having food sticking in my throat for past few weeks. Starting taking nexuim again for gerd but now am afraid to eat! I also have had over three years of chronic pain, doc believes it's fibromyagia. I have an appointment tomorrow and was hoping to be put in an antidepressant to help with stress and pain, have you heard of these pills helping with fibro pain. I could use some support right now. Thank you in advance

I have the same issue as you and yes regurgitation is what helps me, but it takes awhile for all of it to come up before I feel better. Is yours on the left side of your throat? What, if anything have you had done to help correct this problem. I have had some swallow tests done and been scoped, but nothing. I am not making this stuff up. I went away for over a year, but now it's back and I have changed nothing in my diet or lifestyle.

When you had your tonsils, did you notice if food would sometimes be released when you yawned?

Has anyone had their thyroids checked ? Also, their liver ? That would be a first step as the thyroid gland plays such a vital role in regulating the body's metabolism.. Hope this helps.

Your description is exactly what I Experience. It's not a feeling that food is stuck as others have described, it actually is food! It happened a few days ago and I felt I was choking to death because this time I panicked. Usually I stay calm and it slides down in a matter of seconds. My sister performed the Heimleich and it went down ... I was eating beef. I am afraid it may happen when I'm alone, so I'm determined to chew everything completely and in small amounts before I swallow.

I had this problem for a year and started to have panic attacks because I felt that the lump in my throat might choke me. A reflexologist recommend a doctor who practices alternative medicine and he helped me tremendously. Try limiting your diet to meat and vegetables ... no carbs. I ate that way for a year along with high doses of vitamins C. It went away completely. I saw every traditional specialist possible. This is the only thing that worked.

I've been feeling the same way! This problem started on August 11 th which was the day I ate my last meal ! I tried to eat a total of 4x in the past month and each time I ended up going to the hospital because I can feel the food sitting in my throat . I've been to the ent doctor they put a scope down in my throat and said they don't see anything ! I go to the g.I doctor on Oct-6th so they can get a better look . I'm hoping they have answers because I'm starving I've lost a total of 30lbs in the past 2 weeks I'm beginning to feel weak I don't wanna keep drinking all in one meal shakes with tomato soup and pudding every day I just want be able to eat a decent meal

While eating my husband sometimes feels like his food when swallowing goes down the side of the throat, and it gets stuck, and then he vomits. What can we do to get rid of this?
