What was found?: Transit dysphagia (difficulty moving food down esophagus) may be due to esophageal spasm, eosinophilic esophagitis, classic esophageal dysfunction (or even age-related presby-esophagus), structural pathology (due to esophageal narrowing, cancer, focal inflammation like an ulcer from a pill, or infection, or fungal involvement of the esophagus). What did your doctor find? Please follow-up with him.
