Gastroenterologist: Sounds like reflux or some other problem with stomach or esophagus.  Would discuss seeing a gastroenterologist with your primary care physician.

Question 10

if food went down wrong pipe would i choke?had on off chest pain above rt breast after food stuck in my throat earlier.

Accepted Answer

Choking : If food got stuck in your esophagus, then you would've had trouble swallowing with inability to pass any liquid or solid food. If it went down your trachea or windpipe, then you would've had extreme coughing and shortness of breath. This could cause an extreme airway problem. You may have had a partial blockage in esophagus that cleared. See MD if symptoms persist or worsen.
