Thanks again Gary. very insightful. Kimlynn, Mrgvw (Gary) is correct. Have an upper endoscopy and go from there. I had trouble swallowing (food getting hung up at the junction of the esophagus and stomach) and muscled through it for 3-4 months as my tumor grew. I hope yours is not a tumor, but if it is, earlier detection is better. If it's not, big relief and if necessary they can dialite a benign stricture and get you eating better. Best of luck and let us know how it goes.
