Hello @highpsi8 and welcome to Mayo Connect. I'm sorry to hear about your problem with swallowing. It is very frustrating to have a problem like this without any answers or a diagnosis.

Many of us on Connect have experienced hard-to-diagnose health problems. It often takes a lot of time to find the answer. I compare this to a journey. You have to research, get many opinions from specialists, and look for specialists who are experienced.

Are you near a research-oriented health care facility, like Mayo Clinic, or a university medical school? If so, I'd suggest getting another opinion there. Because these health care organizations tend to have more research and communication between their medical staff, they can be above-average in helping to solve puzzling problems.

Are you able to go to a facility like this?
