swallowing

I have trouble swallowing at night, can this have anything to do with having gastroenterology, if so, what is the remedy and if not, what title should i look under? Thank you for any help you can offer.

Can't say................having gastroenterology is nonsequitur. Is there a medical condition you wish to address? Are you taking any new medication? I once had trouble swallowing after taking abilify.

Do you have GERD (acid reflux)?  If you are lying down when this happens, it could very well be this.  Try elevating your head at night, plus taking Prilosec (OTC) is good.
