Hi @floridiananna. I am just seeing your post and that you have been dealing with swallowing issues. Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect.

I am tagging a few members that have mentioned esophageal motility, hoping they will discuss more about their experiences; @carolina27 who started this discussion, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/ineffectual-esophagus-motility/, and also @graceym1 , @celia16 and @denisef

It may help for you explain more about what you have been dealing with, what your symptoms are so others will have a better idea how to comment.

Are you seeing a GI doctor and having testing done? What is next?

Hi, @floridiananna - since ineffective esophageal motility (IEM) is a type of esophageal dysmotility, I've moved your post here so that you can chat with more members who have common experiences with you and are talking about this topic.

So glad you connected with @jlharsh, and I'm hoping you can also talk with others in this discussion such as @kcareconnections @nascar4433 @lenka73 @bla1958 and others.

floridiananna - you mentioned that your IEM started with swallowing issues. Are you now experiencing other symptoms, as well? If so, what symptoms are you having?
