Definitely true. Might be esophagus issues. I worried about this (had a swallowing issue) and had an upper endoscopy done. Luckily everything turned out okay and problem went away.

That's what I'm hoping for.

Had the back of my neck puff up bigtime during our WDW trip for our daughter's wedding.

Had it checked out recently including a CT scan and fortunately found out it is only a fairly large lipoma (benign fatty tissue). It does impact my range of motion and causes some neck pain, so I'll be looking at getting it removed.

My father-in-law had issues swallowing with food of late especially with dry food.
It got progressively worse to the point where he reduced his eating consumption considerably.

Background is he’s been on a lot of meds from heart through to others required over last three years.

It turned out that his GP was saying with all the meds and antibiotics he ended up getting thrush in the throat. Ended up being straight forward to treat with yet more meds, but came right relatively quickly after.

Hopefully it’s something straight forward like above.
