HI Everyone here,
I don't post very often, but I do read your Posts every Day.
I need some reassurence at the moment.
I have this Swallowing problem, and it is really getting to me now,
It isn't the lump in the throat, Iv'e had that. this is something
different, I have to have all my food mashed to a pulp to swallow it.
If my tounge feels any lumps , however small, then when I swallow,
I get the message that I will choke and cannot swallow it.
My throat goes into a Muscle Spasm, it closes up,very frighting.
It is not the food that is making this happen, it is mashed up.
it is purely the fear of choking.
My eyes water when this happens and I heave and can do nothing
untill the throat muscle relases it self.
It is only far a few secondes, but it is SO frighting.
This means that there is lots of food that I do not eat now,
so loosing weight.
Is there anyone out there that has had this problem?
if so, how did you deal with it?
Like I said previously, it is not the lump in the throat feeling prior to
eating, it is only the Muscle Spasm when my mind seems to think
there is big lumps of food, yet it is really mashey.
Look forward to hearing from you soon.
Your Friend,
