So since about mid-October i have been having issues keeping my food down, and since then i have been diagnosed with Achalasia.

for those who don't want to google it, basically part of my esophagus will not open up to let food in. from some imaging i saw a little but goes by but the rest just kinda sits there until either it manages to break down enough enough to slowly funnel through, or i cough it up. this has also resulted in the part of my esophagus just above it getting much larger and forming basically a really fine funnel. the best way i can describe it layman's terms is a 15 lane highway all having to merge into a single lane at once.

This is kinda dangerous as if i cough something up weird (especially when lying down) i could inhale it and choke. I have not been eating as late to mitigate this and will soon be getting a pillow that allows me to sit up in my bed.

I have to have a few tests done on me to find out if it is type 1,2, or 3 Achalasia. doctor thinks its 1 or 2 which are the easier ones to treat so i hope so.

I should be fine, but i don't look forward to the pre-visit fasting.
