Hot Food

Hello everyone. I have been dealing with something and not sure if is related to EM or not? When I swallow food or drink that is hot (in temperature, not spice level), the food or fluid gets stuck in my esophagus. Drinking to clear the block only worsens the problem…the fluid backs up in my throat. This only happens when the food or drink is hot. I’m not sure why this is happening. I don’t even know who to see about this? Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thank you

Hi,
I am so sorry to hear about what you are experiencing. It sounds extremely uncomfortable and scary. I have never experienced anything like this. I guess my first idea would be to go to your primary care and ask for a referral to see a specialist and see what they recommend.
I am sorry I am not more helpful, but please follow-up and let me know what the doctor says or what you find out.
