I tend to have food get stuck in my throat when I begin to eat. I don t feel that I am eating too fast, or not chewing enough. It normally takes a few minutes and I produce saliva, and I throw up. In the mean time, my chest is super painful, until I pass the food, one way or another. I had graves disease and have had radioactive treatment on the thyroid.... This has been happening at almost every meal for the, last week or so.
