Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum,
If you have had tight lower esophageal sphincter or defective sphincter tone, then your symptoms could be attributed to it. Another possibility includes probability of mental blocks/psychological involved with having certain foods (as you describe). Consider going ahead with getting a counseling done to help with your symptoms. If counseling does not help, go ahead with visiting a gastroenterologist to rule out and GI tract abnormalities.
Take care.
