Thank you! You also mentioned a video on the sinus connection - was there a link to that also? Have used some nasal sprays but still seeking to resolve.

[@debbiec6216]

@@DAN-hh7ob I have Post nasal drip for 4 months ( because I have so many things going on at the same time ) I didn't think anything about the post nasal drip, until weeks later I recieved a horrible smell. I went to 5 different doctors for the smell alone, they couldn't answer the issue. My spouse kept saying post nasal drip, I overlooked him for awhile. I just knew I needed help. So finally I went to ENT and the more I think it about it , it has to be it. I have a appt tomorrow with ENT for my result test , and I do have nasal issues, and see what my options are. If I have to have surgery , and give it time, and if that smell goes away , I'll know it was my sinuses. I don't smell that odor lately . I'll wait until tomorrow. All this becomes overwhelming.

For me it's not about food not going down. It's about fearing that food will go in the wind pipe from not coordinating properly and my tongue/lower jaw starts feeling weak. Not fun. Just wanna eat well again

[@nuraiyazaima8862]

Same here. A fishbone stucked in my throat for two days and after that swallowing anxiety become tough on me from last 2 months. I am literally dying everyday. Last night something terrible happened. Suddenly I couldn’t swallow at all for 2/3 seconds while i was having my dinner. After that I finished my dinner and panicked all night. I was so scared all day long today. Idk occasionally trouble swallowing is worrisome or not. But i am very scared right now. Should i go to doctor?

[@Leonardokite]

My daughter had that issue. It was a structural problem. She had surgery done and it pretty much fixed the problem. At least made it so it was barely there and very livable. Because as you said, it is indeed kind of scary when you can't swallow.

[@KickItNaturally]

thanks for sharing this.

What surgery did she get? I have a similar problem

[@debbiec6216]

When the lining changes it could cause precancer cells and that's when you could end up with Barrett disease. When I had the test for hiatal hernia , the doctor said , it was very small . Not to worry about it , well doctor doesn't' know me, and I will sit around and think it's okay. I'll have it checked like I did . And I'll visit with the Chiropractor, and teach me how to keep it down , if that's the case. In the near future I'll have the hiatal hernia checked again. I had the breathing test for H Pylori , it was *Negative*

[@Salamaleikum80]

But how did you fix all of these issues? You said you fixed your hiatal hernia did you do a fundoplicatio? How did you fix the sinus issues and the overgrowth?

[@LauraCordes]

I can eat and drink just fine, but the simple process of swallowing isn't working for me. Like when I just need to swallow my own saliva and my throat slams shut. I feel like I'm dy1ng, and it terrifies me and brings on a panic attack. What is my body doing to me?

[@MuneebSheikh-pq4vc]

Same if u know how to get rid off do lemme know too

[@ronA8te]

Faceformer from Dr. Berndsen. Look into it, it's from Germany but there are english Informations as well. Sounds like a functional breathing/swallowing problem, nothing dangerous just feels aweful.

my issue is all the docs ive seen tell me it's ibs and it will never fully go away and i have to just live with it but this all started with daily heartburn now it's acid reflux , also my thyroid changed to hypo so ive been stuck for 6 years now . before this happened i was taking a probiotic for mild constipation witch helped me get back on track with daily bowel movements but after i started having GI issues the probiotic stopped working and now it alters between constipation and very lose .so now i can't even leave the house because i might have to rush to a bathroom .any help,tips or advice would be great thanks

[@sammylpt9076]

Does anyone on this thread (or anyone reading this thread for that matter) have issues controlling their face symmetrically? So I have had a form of dysphagia for the past 25 years or so, and now I have it 8-10 times, every meal. It’s not the most fun but there are foods I can still eat that don’t cause an issue. However the point I’m kind of researching myself and thinking about (as doctors can’t seem to figure out my problem) is could my swallow be a direct causation of non-symmetrical facial control? For example: On my left side, so can do the following: I can curl my lip; I can blow air into my cheek; I can raise my eyebrow; when I smile my lips show my teeth. I also have stigmatism in the eye, as in I have good vision in my left but not in my right. On my right side of the face I can’t do the above. I have no control. When I smile my right side lower lip doesn’t smile properly. Maybe that’s all a coincidence, maybe not. I’ve not seen any correlative data on it. My tongue I can make into shapes; and when I swallow liquid I have a very loud gulp. I mention this because some people on various sources have said that a strong tongue can cause swallowing issues as can a powerful swallow. For those who’ve managed to stay with me on this, my dysphagia is characterised by an involuntary spasm in my upper oesophagus. It feels below my Adam’s apple. When I swallow food it’s imperative for this contraction to relax before I swallow more food because it becomes overwhelmingly increasingly difficult to relax the oesophagus with each swallow. Often sips of water works but if it doesn’t I have to force myself to be sick and then try again. Most of the time the water allows the pipe to relax but in times that it doesn’t I carry pills of buscopan and I let it dissolve in my gums or I go to A&E and get a muscle relaxant injection. I’ve had various endoscopies and been observed swallowing but the problem is it’s not 100% there, so sometimes I can eat and nothing happens, other times it’s a real gauntlet. Just wondering what or if people have experienced alongside their dysphagia?

[@ninaromm5491]

Just started taking beet flow, is it normal to start feeling hunger pains after taking it?

I bout the ph strips so I will be testing that out today to see if I am getting more alkaline bc I’m used to it always coming back pretty acidic with positive bilirubin
