Hi
Thanks for writing to HCM

62yrs old lady with difficult in swallowing (dysphagia) of unkonwn duration, initially to solids and then to both solid and liquid. With this history I think that it is of utmost importance to get one Upper GI endoscopy along with routine blood test.

Let us know how you find this interaction.
