Such as chicken or any other meat. It seems to get stuck right at the bottom of my throat and it doen't want to go any further, down or back up. Thank you  |
Hi Krank, I agree that difficulty swallowing goes along with RSD for some of us. I know it's scary when we have difficulty and feels like food is stuck. Go slow and small and drink water-plenty. I have full body RSD 15 years. Internally also. My Dr. a neurologist has me on lorazepam, an anti-anxiety med and that calms my system down and relaxes my symptoms some. I've made many changes in my life to live in a calmer life style. I refuse to to be around negative people. The calmer the better. Music, meditation, exercise, stretching, all help too. Hope the best for you. your friend, loretta
