Meredith,
Is John's swallowing improving? I had another swallow study last week and we discovered why food gets stuck in my throat. I have a stricture or blockage in my espophagus. I will have to see a gastro/enterologist who will do the balloon dilation I am sure. Unfortunately the results are not permanent from what I hear. At least we defined the problem and maybe one day soon I will actually be eating! Best wishes for you and John.
