A member asked:

Had upper gi series today, dr says ther is lots of stuff from the stomach to the neck, what is it called and what is done for it.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Food in the esoph...: ...Agus is the most likely. And that means you may have ineffective emptying of the esophagus into the stomach after eating. A narrowing (stricture or scar tissue from acid reflux) is most likely but it could also be a tumor or ineffective muscle action in the esophagus itself (esophageal spasm). Next step? Upper GI endoscopy.
