Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
You are having chocking sensation while eating food. So posterior pharynx examination has to be done and indirect laryngoscopy also should be done. If needed Barium x ray can be done. If specific cause found than treated accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
