Neuropathy and fibromyalgia unbearable pain
Chronic Pain | Last Active: 8 hours ago | Replies (32)Comment receiving replies
I’m not yet 60 and I choke on my food occasionally. A year ago I had to have my esophagus enlarged due to thinning. That alone tells me there is some atrophy. I’m choking again. I don’t want to go through the procedure again. It wasn’t painful until afterwards. I have SFN, Trigeminal Neuralgia, migraines, occipital Neuralgia and FMS. I’ve been told I have CFS as well. Darn it….I’m just tired of all of it. I’m waiting for a miracle so I can be whole again.

Oh how i understand you. It has been a long road trying to get better. But new things just keep coming and the old just get worse. My choking happens 2 and 3 times a day. It's awful to choke on nothing and choke on food. I eliminate foods that make me choke but now I am running out of things I can eat. I cut everything up tiny and eat very slow. I wish you well and good luck. Choking is a terrible thing to live with.

Hi, I choke all the time and I have projectile vomiting at times. I think that if they've ruled out reflux then you likely have Plummer Vincent Syndrome. You need a motility study and have your spincters (the set of muscles that are found in the rectum, throat, in parts of the lungs and so many other places) checked to see if they are working ok ..... Different meds can trigger problems as can taking meds at the same time of the day regularly....at least in my case. Good luck to you!! God bless and know that you are not alone!!
