Globus sensation and feeling of certain food getting stuck in lower esophagus

Posted , 2 users are following.

Has anyone else had this feeling that food mainly solid foods wouldn't leave the esophagus with extremely uncomfortable feelings. This feeling comes on after half hour or 45 mins of eating. It also causes hiccups and loud belching. Also sore throat that never goes away. I had endoscopy after a long wait. still waiting for esionophllic Esophagitis test results. Could it be motility disorder. Im 45 never had swallowing problems before and problems started only from October 2019. If its motility disorders or achalasia then what are the treatments ? Can someone have it out of nowhere ? I feel embarrassed keep going back to doctor. losing weight fast due to not eating enough.

    Hi,

    I have been having similar symptoms. Went to get gastroscopy and all of GERD, Hiatal Hernia and H Pylori came our negative. I constantly feel like their is something stuck in my throat. After I regulated my meals, gave up coffee and alcohol, and stopped eating 3 hours before bedtime, some of the symptoms started to reduce but came back again. I am on 40mg Osmeprazole and Gaviscon. They seem to help but not a lot. I am wondering what is going on.
