Solid food occasionally but regularly sticks in my throat, causing me shortly thereafter to regurgitate. I also occasionally wake from sleep with reflux then vomit. Seems like these are red-flag sumptoms of possible oesophageal cancer, a cancer which doesn't have the best prognosis. I smoked till 2 yrs ago, as well as always drinking more alcohol than I should. Thought I'd gotten away with it, but mebbe naw. Anyways, my GP's made me an urgent referral for an upper endoscopy so now I just wait and worry. My alcoholic pal died of this cancer 10 yrs ago. Still glad I went to the doc so I can deal with whatever this is. If anyone's like me- better to go early rather than later.
