Functional condition: The major issues have been ruled out; so this may be a functional problem, similar to irritable bowel syndrome; some form of biofeedback therapy may be helpful to get control of the situation.

Spasm/anxiety: Does it affect your breathing? Esophageal spasm/ asthma/ anxiety are all possibilities.Talk to your doc about your persistent symptoms.
