Question:
I was wondering if anyone had these symptoms?

For the past week, when I eat it feels like I get stuck but it always goes down. Yesterday, I had a half a piece of cheese and that was fine. Then later in the day, part way through working at a horse ranch, I tried to eat and I got one bite down and off I was into the bathroom. Well I thought we were only supposed to dry heave but I had one where actual food came up. Now I am not sure but when I eat I also seem to burp constantly. Just the last couple of days it does it with liquid to. Now I am not sure if it was the heat yesterday or if it is something else. I ate a couple small bites of mashed potatoes today and they felt kinda stuck but they went down. Anyone else? I am sorry for the long post and yes the doctors nurse is aware but said I should be okay till my appointment tomorrow.

Sounds like you might have a stricture.....I'm 7 weeks out and have had 3 so far.Constant burping,occasional vomiting and feeling like food was stuck were my main symptoms.It's an easy fix though.....you have an outpatient endoscopy and the narrowing gets dilated back open.You are sedated so you don't feel anything.Strictures are a common complication.
