Hi all
I have Limited cutaneous Systemic Sclerosis and have been experiencing swallowing difficulties, certain foods get stuck in my chest and will only go down with fluids. I am seeing a gastroenterologist on Tuesday about my problems (several at the moment). I’ve read a lot about Oesophageal Dilatation and wondered if anyone here has had it? And to what severity will they do the procedure? Just preparing myself.
I also choke quite often which comes from my throat, could be food, saliva or air 🙈 very embarrassing, especially when in public or in the office. Could this be weak throat muscles?
I take 40mg omeprozole and 300mg renitidene daily.
Any advice greatly received
Thank you x
