For Over 1.5 Years I Have Had Difficulty Swallowing Along

For over 1.5 years I have had difficulty swallowing along with stomach upset. I went to a gastro physicians who did both and endo and colon scope and the only thing he found was as my throat went into my esophagus it had narrowed so he wided it and sent me home. I finally realized diary was my stomach distress and have pretty much cut out diary and am doing much better. However my throat/swallowing issues have worse. I went to an ENT physician who did allergy testing and have been on allergy shots for six months and also he put me on acid reflux meds. To date my throat is sore with varying degrees of soreness, sometimes my ears are stopped up, I still have major difficulty swallowing and cant eat normally and wake up with mucus in my throat every morning. After I take my allergy shot each week these symptoms get worse. I am at my wit's end. To date I have done the two scopes, take allergy shots, take reflux meds, and have done a swallow test that has shown nothing. My ENT has prescribed a CT of the neck area but so far my insurance has denied. What do I do?
