Positive thoughts
I agree with FMP and AMoC

The fact that the 'food stuck in the throat feeling' goes away when taking PPI's proves that you haven't got OC/EC. You may have oesophagitis (which is benign inflammation) and can take quite a while to heal, sometimes months, so you need to keep on taking them.

Why are you stopping and starting the meds?
