Hello everyone I have had this swallowing issues for over two years now I have list over 60 pounds because of me unable to resolve my issues. I will like to know if by me having a prolapsed rectum is that the reason why I'm having digestive issues like having a feeling of something always being stuck in my throat I burp sooooo much it's driving me crazy every time I burp it doesn't come up completely and I have to literally manually regurgitate to bring the burp up and there comes my food. I have went to several gastroenterologist and no one seems to see anything. Please help anyone with a doctor or solution.

I wish I could relate. But this is not a condition I have ever had. Perhaps go to a center of excellence, or a major teaching hospital where they will do team evaluation
Losing this much weight is definitely not normal. It is also one of the symptoms of pancreatic cancer but this may be ruled out if you have had CT scans and MRIs
Don’t give up. Be your own advocate!
Maybe no one responses to you because your symptoms are so different. Like the others said, you need to keep searching for a doctor that can help you. In the meantime time, maybe change your diet? Softer foods, chewing for a longer time, quit smoking?hugs and thoughts …hopefully you’ll find a doctor that will
Help you.
I would suggest seeing an ear nose throat specialist and having your throat examined. Not being able to swallow or having food stuck in the throat plus weight loss are serious signs that something is wrong especially for a smoker.
Dysphagia, consult a gastroenterologist
I deep wet belch over 1000 x a day and night , non stop churning gut , extremely fatigued. Done over 6 Gastro Drs . I have 6 diagnoses done everything , tried everything holistic, RX , have gastro cardiac symptoms w/ it ( pvcs ). No Drs have helped not even Mayo Clinic.
My brother had same symptoms as you for 1.5 years . Could only eat soup , smoothies .. went to all kinds of Dr’s .
Finally saw one that put him on small dose of prednisone daily .
That was what finally helped him .
He even had his esophagus dilated 2 x ( didn’t help ) before he was put on it. May want to try that .
Oh lord life is hard !

You live close to Manhattan where they have some of the top hospitals with outstanding GI departments. Such as
NYU Langone
Mount Sinai
Columbia Presbyterian
Take a look at them and contact them. The testing you have had so far is incomplete.
Wishing you well!

I’m sorry to hear that.
NJ also have some excellent university medical centers- especially Hackensack University Hospital. Others in Princeton, Newark, New Brunswick.
I have already been to two gastroenterologist and ENT doctors in Newark at the University Hospital. No clue of what is going on. Called it a NON-SPECIFIC MOTILITY DISORDER. I want relief to hold food down and regain my weight. It's not the trouble of swallowing it's the feeling of my food sitting on my stomach and feels like something in my throat so I have to manually regurgitate my food so the feeling of something being stuck to be removed and that doesn't help often. I want to eat again and regain my weight. Can anyone please help me???!
Update I went to see another gastrointolgist on Monday keep saying a NON-SPECIFIC MOTILITY DISORDER ok but how do we fix the issue for me to eat again. The prescribed me an antidepressants and changed my bowels medications.
What is Gerd the Prilosec isn't working am I taking it right will the antidepressants will help resolve the feeling of something stuck in my throat. When will I be able to eat again. What foods am I able to find something to eat that will slide down without regurgitating. When I throw up I feel on the side of my throat like a lump or something but three endoscope test says nothing there. Anyone have these symptoms please reach out and help me with my issues please
