Answers:
I have a problem kind of like this!.!.!. except I just get really scared and nervous before I take pills!. It helps to talk to the doctor, who told me it is almost impossible to choke on my food, when properly chewed!. It is extremely rare that anyone would have such a small throat that they could not eat!.

Try not to think about it, and just overcome those fears through slowly realizing the odds, and eating smaller bites, chewing thoroughly!.

Hope this helps!Www@Answer-Health@Com
