I have been having trouble swallowing - especially water. I think I swallow air because I belch a lot after. I get the feeling that something is stuck in my throat, too after eating but the feeling slowly fades. This has been going on for several weeks. I just started on aciphex twice a day, am trying to eat small low fat meals and sleep on a whole body wedge. Will this feeling fade with diet or could I possibly have a stricture? If it is a stricture will it go away with diet change on its own? It gets worse as the day progresses.
