..Thank you all for your support and replys.
To Ginnie, When the Gastrol Doc. put in my feeding tube he went down thru my mouth and while he did this he was checking out my esophogus and stomach area. He said everything looked healthy inside.
My swallowing problem is differant from a esophogus problem I think because I can't get the message to my throat to swallow. I put in the food or drink and there is no click for it to swallow. The drink will usually run down my windpipe and the food will just sit there in my mouth until I spit it out.

To Alice md, Another strange thing or clue is I have so much drainage post nasel that I can't swallow, along with my saliva But before the feeding tube was put in I Always had my nose dripping on the outside so I always had a tissue in my hand to dab it away. Why now is the drainage Only running down my throat and trying to choke me? I wonder if the Gastrolagest moved something in the back of my throat when he put the scope and then the peg tube down there.
I also wonder if I should go to a nose throat specialist. It's all so crazy, maybe thats why they want to shut me up with antidepression meds.

I went for a musk blood test, it should be back in a couple of weeks, maybe another clue to whats going on with me.
My neuoro said he's not questioning the M.G. dx. he's just dosen't think thats why my swallowing is gone, hence the 2nd opinion.
