the doc that did my stretch was a
gastroenterologist. he did a ballon thing. ENT's around here don't do ballon stuff. it worked for me, it could work for him. the proceedure is a very easy one, but left me with a sore throat for about a week. i needed to have it done twice.

i did the swallowing thing with barrium and think it was a complete waste of time.

i think that i'd go for the stretch and forgo the swallowing study if possible.
