if the swallowing problem is from the AS, then others will be able to help you more. my husband has gone through bouts of trouble swallowing from having scar tissue in his esophagus from having very bad reflux / GERD. the gastroenterologists have removed the scar tissue several times over the years. a combination of taking prilosec once a day, mylanta at night when needed, and not eating for a few hours preceding bedtime, and avoiding certain foods (which i think depends from person to person) have helped him immensely. the last time he was scoped, things looked very good down there. when it is bad, food gets stuck.
