Trouble Swallowing/dysphagia
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­

Lately I have developed this trouble swallowing. It's like food doesn't want to go down once I swallow it, and I have to drink extra water in order to coax it down. Anyone else with this trouble?

Yes, Missa...
I have the same
problem. It gets
worse, then will
get better for awhile. Allergies
seem to make mine worse, too.
Sometimes, you
feel like you're choking, esp dry
foods, like breads, cornbread, etc.

Hope you have a
Good night. πŸ¦‹πŸ’ž

Hi! Get your thyroid checked out there is a condition called nodular thyroid. Not swallowing properly. I have underactive thyroid and asthma. A feeling someone is trying to chock you. When this happens lat still slow down heart rate and think of something beautiful till it passes. Xxx
