AB  - A  52-year-old  gentleman  comes  to  your  office  with  a  history  of  intermittent  difficulty  swallowing  solid  food.  His  symptoms  have  been  present  for  the  past  5  years.  He  points  to  his  supraclavicular  notch  when  describing  where  the  food  feels  stuck,  although  he  is  able  to  chew  his  food  and  transfer  it  into  his  posterior  pharynx  without  difficulty.  He  does  not  choke  or  cough  while  eating.  Drinking  water  will  usually  relieve  his  symptoms,  although  on  several  occasions  he  has  self-induced  vomiting.  His  symptoms  are  slightly  worse  now  than  they  were  several  years  ago,  which  prompted  today's  visit.
