Thanks for your response. I am leaning toward reflux or some related type of problem.
Thanks for your response. What diagnostic tests were done to decide using a nerve block?
you have reflux. With the problem swallowing you need to be rescoped the pills are a good cover up. It could be serious, or you may just need to be dialated.
I would follow up with the gastro again and be rechecked you could have barretts.
I had the same exact pain... my doctor did a medial branch nerve block and I have not had ANY pain since the procedure. You may want to check it out.
