Pill feels like stuck in throat. (gel capsule keflex) feels like it went sideways, is this possible? i ate some bread, it went down fine. could it still be stuck after drinking and eating bread?

Pill stuck: Build up some saliva in mouth next time before taking pill. Then swish pill around in your mouth in this saliva then should go down nicely.
