Whenever I drink alcoholic beverages, mostly beer, my throat gets tight and I have a hard time swallowing saliva. I will usually clear my throat or take a deep breath and I am fine, but its super scary and feels like Im going to choke?

Having tight throat and trouble swallowing my own saliva/mucus and foods like rice and bread. Sticks in throat and quickly makes it hard to breath.

When I swallow, it feels like there is something stuck in my throat, also when I eat a meal it feels like its not going down and its just sitting at the bottom of my throat. When I take a deep breath it feels tight in my chest.
