Ok, I wanna try and describe this accurately.
First off the problem started when i was in 1st grade. In the lunch room ,can't remember what i was eating or anything but, I do know what occurred.
It starts off after a few bites I feel a building pressure, similar to choking but i can still breathe. (When i was younger it used to cause me to think i was choking but eventually as I got older these fears disappeared as I could distinguish the difference.) then if the pressure doesn't go away, as sometimes it will go away right away. It turns into a pain in the throat/upper chest. Every time i try to swallow the pressure/pain worsens and eventually I throw up
mucous. It can be described as trying to burp but instead of it coming out its being blocked by vast amounts of mucous/phlegm and thats what causes the pressure. This can last for 15 mins - 2 hrs, The pain and discomfort is extreme. Now as this has gone on so long i have tried to troubleshoot/ figure out the problem myself. I know its not a
food allergy as after the pain goes away I can resume eating (usually i am so shaken and tired from the ordeal that i do not. when it first occurred a long time ago i was told it was all in my head. And ever since i have been living with this pain. Its onset is random. However certain things trigger it automatically. Like if i try and swallow a tylenol it instantly happens but its effect is usually worse then normal. But it doesn't happen if I crush the tablet. Actually i thing to know is if i try and swallow anything "too large" it causes it. However it isn't limited to it, just an example of an instant trigger. Please help me.
