Esophageal Pain

[skane10 64]

How can you tell if you have a stricture vs you are eating too fast or not chewing thoroughly? I get a pain in my esophagus and chest when i eat sometimes and i really try to eat slow but am getting worried. i have thrown up a few timesnwhen this pain hits.

It sounds to me more like eating too fast. Symptoms of a stricture include: persistent nausea /vomiting, inabilty or gradual inability to keep anything down including liquids. Post-VSGrs w/ strictures also report: liquids backing up in their esophagus, foamies, heaving, fatigue.

If you are having these issues, you should probably talk to your doctor. You may want to talk to them even if it's eating fast, just for peace of mind.
