RetroAlleyCat (she/her) Zed Zha, MD is writing That's interesting. I've had dysphagia since the age of 10. Crickets and 'smart looks' from my doctors.

So glad I'm leaving them....

Now, the hard part: asking any NEW doctor about this, and not being treated like a hypochondriac....

Is there some reason drug companies make GIANT freaking capsules when a large population has a hard time swallowing pills?! I'd rather take a handful of small capsules than one huge one! So upset right now.
