Hi bosunmate,
I have been complaining about this to my doctors for a few years. I am stuck looking down at my feet, but I can imagine stuck looking up is no way to live either. I think your doctor is right, there could be any number of things casing swallowing trouble. Do you choke on saliva in your sleep too? My throat diameter is only 50% of what it is supposed to be. Good luck at your ENT appointment.
Take care,
James
