Difficulty Swallowing and Eosinophilic Esophagitis EoE
The esophagus carries food and liquids from your mouth to the stomach. Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic disease of the esophagus. If you have EoE, white blood cells called eosinophils build up in your esophagus. This can cause damage and inflammation causing pain and may lead to trouble swallowing and food getting stuck in your throat or dysphagia.
If you are having difficulty swallowing, you should have symptoms reviewed by a gastroenterologist.
You may also be eligible for a clinical research study if you have a confirmed diagnosis of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), eosinophilic gastritis and/or eosinophilic duodenitis (EG/EoD).
