Esophagus

Hi There..
I am not sure if Esophagus comes under this category or forum.

I am make 33 yrs old from UK

For the last 2 years I have been suffering from a sensation of food getting stuck in my throat and sipping a drink tends to make things worse. This really does hurt with bread/meat/potatoes.

I am also bringing up lots of saliva and mucus.

I have researched online and nearly everything points to Esophagus Cancer symptoms.

This sympton i am experiencing is very painful and very annoying but comes and goes.

what I would like to know is IF it WAS Esophgus cancer, would I be experiencing this ALL the time, or would it come and go.

Many Thanks for your time to read my thread and would welcome any advise.

Kind Regards
Kevin

Hello Kevin

My advice would be to see your GP and request for a referral to possibly both an ENT specialist and a gastroenterologist to look down your throat and oesophagus to find out why you are experiencing these symptoms. Let us know how you get on.

Best wishes
