  • I considered it today after hearing no diagnosis but that was the first time . I suppose I see how that may be an issue but then again she still didn't consider that from her professional stand point .. I don't know the treatment for that , maybe the same as a mechanical issue , the swallowing therapist . If it's not acid reflux or any of this other jazz it must be a motility issue and if so I think more testing should be involved because the last test I did was not efficient I don't believe as it was pretty hard to eat and carry out a completely normal day as they wanted with a tube jammed down my throat through my nose into my stomach but .. I don't know anymore :( I just feel frustrated I suppose and maybe my reactions not normal or called for .

    • Medical problems are incredibly frustrating, no one wants to be unwell. And I can imagine the symptoms you're describing are very distressing. But you can't expect every doctor to have an immediate answer.

      A GP is unlikely to know much about psychological issues. It's not their field. That's why there are psychologists, or neurologists, perhaps. I don't know, I have no medical training, I just go with my common sense and reasoning.

    • Whatever's causing your symptoms, it does sound a bit scary. I'd be going for a second opinion if I were you: if you're choking when you eat there has to be some reason for it
