                        You could try Levsin .125  It's a small pill that goes under the tongue.  My symptoms were; I couldn't swallow, it was hard to breathe.  They told me to take antacids and they didn't do a thing.  Levsin has helped me so much.  I keep it on hand all the time.  It's like everything tightens up from your throat to the bottom of the breast bone.  Good luck.
