Why I Am Having Swallowing Difficulty? Nothing Found In Endoscopy And Barium Swallow Scans
Please don't hesitate to give me your opinion, I would be grateful. I have a swallow problem throughout the day but there aren't any problems with eating or drinking, it's just an uncomfortable sensation when I swallow like the muscles are moving around the throat, it feels soaky and I can't do a proper swallow. I've done endoscopy and barium swallow scans and the doctor found nothing. I'm desperate. I don't smoke but I drank many fizzy drinks during my recent years, some weeks without any water. What could it be?

Since your only problem is swallowing difficulty and I hope you have not lost any weight. Endoscopy and barium swallow scans have not detected any problems, your problem seems to mainly neurogenic.
I feel you should not worry and carry on. Do some regular exercises. You should be fine.
