Swallow Gets Stuck (not When Eating Or Drinking) Posted: 10-08-05 10:35am
Had a strange experience about a month
ago. Started with hoarseness, but not
sore throat. A few days later, the
muscles in my throat kept seeming to close
off in the middle of a swallow (not when
eating food or drinking). It was like my
swallow was getting caught half way down
my throat. I had to concentrate on making
the muscles in my throat finish the
swallowing motion, all the time with air
flow being closed off. This lasted a few
weeks. It felt like there was mucus or
some swelling at the back of my throat.
Went to gp who told me to start taking
allerga again and started me on advair (i
also have asthma). These along with
ventolin cleared things up in a few weeks.
Is it all asthma related?
