Lots of things can cause problems swallowing. Your Dr. may want to do an endoscope which is where they basically stick a camera on a tube down your throat. You're knocked out for the procedure. When I had it done, they discovered I had a hiatal hernia, which is basically a hole in the lining between my stomach and my esophogus. But that didn't completely explain the swallowing problem so I'm now waiting for a test where I swallow barium and meet with a speach pathologist who specializes in swallowing problems. But it could also be my seroquel, because when I think about it, I started noticing problems, about the same time I started it.

Good luck getting it sorted out.
