Members shared widespread experiences with swallowing difficulties and voice changes related to dysphasia, with many describing choking on food or saliva, changes in voice tone or depth, and the sensation of something stuck in the throat. Several members mentioned seeking medical evaluation through gastroscopies, upper endoscopies, and throat checks, while others noted that these symptoms had been persistent and long-term issues for them. A recurring theme was the frustration and anxiety around these symptoms interfering with daily life and special occasions, alongside the recognition that throat muscle weakness or sinus and allergy complications may be contributing factors.

My tongue hurts and it hurts when u swallow. It feels like I have something stuck in my throat but not sure. It hurt when I was trying to spit this morning. It hurts to talk too. I’m anxious cuz I’m going away soon for my belated 40th birthday, and want to be able to eat yummy food. What should I do? Should I call my doc or gargle and c if it gets better
