How long will it take for swelling to go down n my throat from acid reflux will i choke on my food if the barium test and scoop n ent office normal??

Reflux: Reflux symptoms to the throat can take quite a while to get better. In fact, I counsel patients that it could take months. Doesn't usually mean you will choke with eating food or getting a barium swallow test. You should be just fine for a scope in the ENT office. Best of luck
