Im so sorry for the long post. In November of 2023 I started noticing difficulties when swallowing. Stomach pain, discomfort. I went to the doctor and was order to get a barium swallow, which showed some narrowing on my esophagus. Then I got an endoscopy that confirmed and benign stricture on my esophagus

pain eating after hiatus hernia repair.
hey everyone, I had surgery to repair a hiatus hernia I had in 2019. I’m grateful I have had no acid reflux since but I get this really bad pain in my left shoulder (kind of up inline with my armpit). I went back to hospital for endoscopy and barium swallow because I regurgitate my food and they found

Oesophageal Diverticulum
Hi everyone, I have a small but quite symptomatic hiatus hernia and I'm feeling a lot of discomfort in the upper left side of my chest, much further to the left that one would expect the oesophagus to be. I've had an endoscopy and barium swallow and I've been told that I have a small mid-esophageal

Upper airway obstruction on spirometry?
So I have had a history of rhinitis/polyps for the past 14 years, it is treated with daily nasal steroids/(drops if bad) and an antihistamine- though all allergy tests have been negative. About 2 months ago (after a period of anxiety it so happens) I had been using the steroid drops and started to

Diagnosis- ish
Hi everyone, Hope you are well. I have seen a gastroenterologist for issues with swallowing. He has diagnosed the following: intermittent dysphagia. Slight incordination of motility via barium swallow. I also had a high resolution manometry. They said reassuring noromotensive lower oesopageal sphincter

Results are in (Update 2/17/23)
So recurrent after radiation and 2 years ADT. PSA pretty close to 3 by now. Bone and CT scan done because my cheap insurance company denied the Pylarify until after the other 2. I don't mind the extra contrasts, barium or whatever hell else they gave me. I keep asking is it nuclear. Only the bone scan

Is there any point in this?
my wife is at a stage whereby she sort of burps as she swallow's.sounds a little like sort of reflux. Just to put you in the picture, she now has great difficulty speaking. It was suggested we see a consultant, this ended up as a phone call to arrange a barium X-ray. He wanted her to have an endoscope

Swallowing difficulties with pouch at back of mouth
Hello , wanted to ask if any of you have been told after a barium swallow investigation that you have a pouch at the back of your mouth? I’m waiting to see the gastroenterologist next month. I have had swallowing difficulties for over a year now - particularly tablets and capsules but also fresh fruit

Husband progressing quickly
Hi! My husband is 68 years old. He was officially diagnosed with PSP IN 2020 , but has been showing symptoms since 2015. He is barely walking now. He falls very frequently. He is on a rollater or he could not get around at all. Everything is so hard for him to do. He has not driven in 3 or 4 years. He
