This is great information.
There's a world of difference between what a gastroenterologist knows vs what a GP knows. I was told by two GPs that food can't get stuck in your throat and "it's all in your head". It took me over a year and multiple food impactions before I eventually had a specialist put an endoscope down my throat to reveal that I indeed had EOE, which was something I had never heard of. It is however something that all GPs need to know about. Being gaslit is not fun.
Thank you for your comment. No it is not fun! You are not alone in your journey and I hope you are getting the care your need now. Check out one of our more recent episodes which focus on difficulty swallowing/food "getting stuck". It is real and not in your head. czcams.com/video/rKHg04KIsXs/video.html
GP never took Nutrition Class in Medical School and IF they did, they only received "maybe" 6 week, if they are lucky .
Did you really mean to say the drug companies' #1 aim is to help people? I don't think that's correct. Drug companies #1 aim is to make money.
*You are 100% correct. Remember if it doesn't make the Doctors $$$$$$, then they aren't going to help you . The good doctors are far and few between , best of luck, NEVER give up !!
Thank you for explaining this. My son was just diagnosed with this. He was told it was just a reaction due to his allergies for years. Luckily, I insisted on an endoscopy that gave him the correct diagnosis.
Thank you for this information. I’ve been having trouble swallowing and just got my bloodwork completed and my EOS count has doubled. I have an appointment with my GI doctor tomorrow and will know more soon! Thank you!!!
Thank you for the info
Thank you so much! My 4 year old son just had his EGD and we are waiting on his biopsies to be 100% sure but it looks like he has EOE and this was so informative. The dr described it as asthma like but affecting his gut which also makes sense.
how is your son doing now ??? I hope he's doing good .
Terrible when even specialist can’t get the diagnosis correctly. When your child feels so uncomfortable and unsupported feeling depressed and anxious is all tied to it, feeling as if it’s all in their head alone. Huge appreciation for your channel.
Thank you for the kind words. Yes it can be frustrating and challenging. Let us know what other resources would be helpful. BTW here is podcast episode with a Mom and her son -- so interested and inspiring. You may relate to their story! gastrogirl.libsyn.com/growing-up-with-eosinophilic-esophagitis-eoe
*Then you wonder why he's even a Doctor in the first place* .
*Because he's NOT helping his patients, that's for sure* !!!
great content and helpful!
Thank you!
My wife told the GP she has trouble swallowing, pressure in chest and felt difficult to breath. They told her she has anxiety and prescribed SSRI's, all over the phone and without any examination! Finally have an appt after 1.5 years with gastro. Now waiting for gastroscopy.
Wow, your story is sadly not unique. But I hope your wife is able to get an accurate diagnosis soon!
How is your wife now? What was her diagnosis if you don't mind sharing?
@@Rainbow_kidd She is ok thanks. Her stomach issues have improved alot. She had both scopys and only a 2 polyps were found which was very small and non cancerous. The doctor said he couldn't see any inflammation. He only said she has IBS. She is down to eating only really 1 meal a day now at noon. Her variety of food has expanded but she still finds many things hard to digest and flare her symptoms so has to be becareful. Strangely it is lots of types of vegatables that cause the worst symptoms . Then a glass of milk around 5 and that's it. Anything more and she gets heartburn or indigestion. Every meal she takes digestive enzymes which helps. She also takes calcium alpha ketogluturate at the moment and I think this has helped too as now is the 2nd time she has taken it and I see an improvement right away. Also magnesium before bed. She took kudzu for a while before meals and this helped her stomach heal too I believe. She doesn't take any medication now. She still has aches and pains all over though but it varies.
@@Rainbow_kidd also, last test her eosinophils were back to normal. they were at 1.4 when she was in a lot of pain.
Same thing happened to me. Except I developed serotonin syndrome because the SSRI’s were never needed. It was EOE and while my doctor is aiming for dupixent I am begging for inhaled steroids over the shot process.
This was very good thank you
You're so welcome!
I have recently been diagnosed with EOE. it used to be so scary, as my parents never knew how to help me. some times it would be severe, causing me to throw up several times, some times more minor. either way,, it would often end in tears as I was pretty young, and I would almost always loose my appetite in frustration. this had gone on for several years and I had excused it as me being such a fast eater, but it quickly became clear that it was more than that, since intrestingly enough, my father -a white man, being the group of people that EOE is most commonly associated with-had suffered with the same thing for most of his adult life. it was no secret to the family, and my father would often faint, causing seizures and other scary experiences, but had never been diagnosed because he claimed doctors couldn't quite put their finger on what he was describing. (I suspect it was the WAY he was describing it, and he perhaps was focusing way too much on the fainting, which then resulted in him being told to eat slower.) it seems from my google searches that EOE can be genetic. anyways, the whole situation was very hard for me, and it was also quite difficult to get in with a doctor, let alone all of the tests that followed. luckliy I got in, and was diagnosed. I'm on the patht to figuring out how to deal with it, and I'm glad this video is helping people to become more aware of this condition, as it extremely hard for the people experiencing it.
Thank you for your thoughtful and candid comment and for sharing your story, I hope you are on track with learning how to manage your EoE. You may find these programs helpful if you are interested. education.giondemand.com/collections?q=eoe
My son was just diagnosed at age 6. A month ago he was diagnosed with ehlers Danlos syndrome too. This was very helpful. Thank you.
Thank you for the feedback. Please let is know if there is a topic you would like GG podcast to cover.
I have never heard of that before . Hope your son is doing better .
Omg I’m literally going through this right now! I don’t enjoy eating anymore. It’s sad really and I have developed a lot of anxiety from it. My chest feels tight it’s hard to swallow some times. I regurgitate my food up most days
Thank you for sharing. Please see a gastroenterologist or speak to your primary care provider for a referral so you can be diagnosed properly.
Me too! I just got myself diagnosed today after my upper endoscopy yesterday (6/28)
How are you doing now?
@@katiesanchez4056 I have been on a super strict elimination diet and PPI since late June. It’s been a rollercoaster mentally trying to find things to eat with a 7 item elimination diet. I haven’t had a food impaction since. I’ve had some regurgitation. I have my next UE on 8/29 to see if the PPI is working or if I’m medication dependent. Then I can start reintroducing food gradually to find the food trigger.
You need to be scoped immediately! Get a hold of gastroenterologist pronto!
Thanks for the information 😇😇😇 new subscriber
Welcome and thank you!
Very good interview. I personally have EoE. Fortunately, I have been able to put it in remission with diet and allergy clearings like NAET
Please tell me how I can convince my husband to get help for his EOE. He’s been suffering since his teenage years and refuses to go to the doctor 🤦🏻♀️
Did you find out what caused you to have "EoE" ???? And what kind of diet are you on?
What ever information you can give out , I sure would appreciate it . Thank you .
I had an "EGD " test yesterday 5/20/2024 , I have to wait 3 weeks for the results , to see if I have
"EoE" . I pray I don't .
Can you please 🙏🏼 explain what diet are you on that has helped
Well elaborate
I just found out I have eoe. I was really surprised by this diagnosis but now that I think about it I have been having issues with hard boiled eggs getting stuck & being very painful. I am having a hard time finding information about it so I thank you for this video.
Thank you. It is a relief to have a diagnosis so you can manage your condition. Here is a link to a resource that you may find helpful . apfed.org/

I've just been diagnosed with EoE having food getting stuck for 9 yrs camera couldn't get threw oesophagus now streched opepazole 2 x 40 mg daily 2 months all good at minute, waiting 4 camera again to see what's going on ,great education video well worth listening to thankyou 🇬🇧
Thanks for sharing
Did you know what caused yours ???? You can be a huge help to those who read your comments,
so they can have test done to have themselves checked.
New subscriber. Great site! How does EoE differ from Schatzki's, which I have? Five dilations over the past 8 years with 2 ER visits has provided me with only partial and temporary success. I think I can handle the self dilation "bougie." My GE has never mentioned this relatively simple self care procedure that has 94% success rate after training with a medical professional.
Very helpful! I’m waiting on pathology right now but it all fits and doctor said it looks like EoE. A month before trouble began I changed my diet to be high on nuts. Hmmm.

I had my first impaction in 2009, didn’t get a PPI until 2019, and finally have doctor that ordered an endoscopy for next week. I really think I had my first flare up in 1999 at age 12. Doctors tried treating me for bronchitis, asthma, and finally acid reflux. So really, it’s taken 20 years to get this diagnosis yet I have textbook symptoms, and my grandfather had a dilation. I’m a white female. It’s crazy, but I’m actually relieved to have a diagnosis and know that I’m not just bad at swallowing!
Thank you for the feedback. You are not alone feeling relieved when you actually find out what is going and receive a diagnosis that can then be treated and managed. All the best. xoxoJG
My daughter was finally diagnosed with this disorder it’s been an unbelievable almost 4 years! Plus has the stomach version of his disorder.
Thank you for sharing your story. Hope all is well!
What are the symptoms for the stomach version?
Is there help for a non cancer esophageal polyp diagnosis? Is there any treatment to repair it.
I was diagnosed with EOE 2019 after many years of almost choking on food. From 2020 to 2023 I've had 12 dilation performed. After having a dilation, first two months were okay. Then very quickly my esophagus would begin to narrow in certain parts, causing major problems eating. Usually by the third month I was on a soup diet only. However, after taking Steroids and PPI,s for the last three years, it seems to have finally worked for me. It's now been just on a year I haven't been back to hospital. Eating most foods, however still being careful when eating. I still do have issues, it's not perfect. But a massive improvement. My esophagus has been dilated to 18mm diameter. They say any more would be risky, due to the damage done prior to diagnosis. At 18mm diameter it's not great but it works for me. Now in 2024, I am beginning to have some issues again but not enough yet to warrant another dilation.
Thank you for sharing your story. We are working on some new content to discuss the updates to EoE treatment options available to patients. Stay tuned and visit our EoE Health Hub on gastrogirl.com All the best. xoxo JG
I was just diagnosed after a year of living of milk and being rejected by my dr >> he kept telling me it was anxiety and PTSD disorders. A whole year ive suffered an because i was living off actual milk daily .. my throat has been inflammed the whole time because i couldn't get a correct answer .. im rather scared now though.. im scared i wont wake up from the anastetia for the endoscopy
I have eoe and I don’t eat any of the known allergens- so why so I have it? I’m now gtube dependent
Hi, I'm looking for an opinion from you. A year ago I was diagnosed with EOE, with 25 eosinophils. After steroid therapy I had a complete remission, but given the complications of candidiasis that it caused me, I interrupted the treatment and tried therapy with proton pump inhibitors, but my Eosinophils at the end of the therapy were 30. I have always been left between 20 and 30. I decided to do the 6 food elimination diet, but after 8 weeks my eosinophils became 100, and 50 also in another part of my esophagus. Could anyone give me their opinion on how this was possible. The only explanation I can give myself is that during the diet I was eating too much of a food to which I am allergic. I await your opinion too.
Is EOE associated with a HIATAL HERNIA? I need answers. My MDs always say the cause is unknown.
Great information. Thank you for interviewing Dr. Gupta.
I was recently diagnosed with EOE and a type 1 Hiatal hernia. Treatment was otc Nexium 20mg 2x per day. after 3 days I developed diarrhea that lasted for 5 days. I was told to discontinue and when symptoms resolved to take 1 per day.
Because of my experience with the med I decided to discontinue use. I'm also following the carnivore diet as well.
It has been almost 2 weeks since stopping the Nexium and I have been experiencing bloating and belching all day to the point where eating is very uncomfortable and I never experience any hunger.
Is it possible that I now have low stomach acid and that's why I'm experiencing these symptoms?
Hi Joe, thank you for your comments. We cannot provide specific medical advice but encourage you to speak with your healthcare provider. A registered dietitian with GI expertise, including EoE may also be helpful.
Hi Joe, I was diagnosed with EOE, 10 days ago I started lion diet (strict carnivore diet), Just wanted to ask you if you got any relieve from your symptoms being on the carnivore diet. Thank you
@@tanyag87yt My EOE Symptoms have resolved. When active I would experience tightness in my throat when swallowing, chest tightness and shortness of breath.
@@joeguercio4157 Thank you so much for quick response. How long you were on a carnivore diet before you symptoms got resolved? and it sounds like you still have some when active?
I'm on Budesonide now. I can eat what I want now and feel so much better. MY EOE gave me bad Gerd and tons of inflamtoin . My scores were in the 1000 now at 5.
I've had this for the last 2 years, my worse experience is when I had to slam myself on the floor because my food pipe was completely cut off. A self imposed "Heimlich Maneuver" ...it's a nightmare. Complete loss of appetite when I have a flare ups, it usually last about 2 days. Loss of sleep because I'm drowning in my own saliva. I have to spit in a cup next to my bed. When I pour it out in the morning, it's thick and stringy :( I also noticed a stuffed up nose during episodes. I've described it as like have a really bad cold, and how the first day is the most miserable with symptoms getting better over the next few days. Problem is, I get it every 2 weeks to 1 a month (I keep a Diary) I have no insurance but now at least I know what is DEFIANTLY is. On a side not, I started buying shelf Stable Milk a few years back. There's some theories that this might be contributing to a rise in this condition.
Only the chocking part started a few years ago, I've issues earlier. I've also had chronic urticaria for 15 years, I hear the my be related. I'm a mess haha. Funny not funny.
PPI’s decrease your overall vitamins and minerals and will not be good in the long run.
That’s scary. I’m being evaluated for suspected EoE and have had GERD for over a year. Back on PPI’s. Hope supplements help!
Exactly they can’t expect us to stay on ppi and steroids!! Wtf!
Ya its terrible. Try an elimination diet. Look up auto immune protocol diet. Its a tough go but its a hard reset for your body. Once you reintroduce food and particular the big ones dairy wheat soy etc.. You will likely find your triggers. Mine are dairy and to lesser extent wheat and soy, and definitely smoke. I tried dialations and steroids and its another bandaid from our supposed medical system. Get to the root of your inflammation is my advice
I’m waiting for confirmation of “suspected EoE “ after an upper endoscopy. I’ve had GERD for about a year. I guess this shows up a certain just by looking at the esophagus? I’m also being checked for CD. Everything is inflamed.
Thank you for your comment. Sounds like you are on the right path for an accurate diagnosis. Yes the upper endoscopy will be able to help the doctor determine what is going on with the esophagus. During the endoscopy, your doctor likely took small tissue samples (biopsy) from your esophagus. The samples will be checked for a high number of eosinophils in order to confirm the EoE diagnosis.
You may find these videos helpful as well.

I was diagnosed with EOE and I've had dilation twice. I've had food impactions and it was so scary!
I also had 2 dilations,and have barrettes, do you have gerd?
I bet it was very scary. Happy to here you have a diagnosis and are able to feel better!
@@sherrylaplante77 I have EOE, GERD and Gastritis they started trying to figure it all out after I had a GI bleed in August and was in the hospital for a week. Thankfully, things are much improved with the elimination of gluten, Omeprazole twice a day and 2 dilations. I've really been focusing on gut health .
@@GastroGirl Thank you, I am feeling much better now. Getting the right GI doctor makes a huge difference. Plus, I would highly recommend anyone with an EOE diagnosis meet with a dietitian , they have so many resources that can help with the elimination diet. :)
@@sherrylaplante77 I have EOE with 2 dilations, GERD and Gastritis. They started doing testing after I had a pretty severe GI bleed in August and was in the hospital for over a week. I'm feeling a lot better now, but it was a lot of testing. Once I had a diagnosis I was able to start working on the elimination diet and some lifestyle changes and it is working. :)
Great video! How come citrus hasn’t made the cut for the elimination diet when citrus does affect GERD?
Most likely because the overview provided in this episode is more general since research shows a strong link between food allergies and eosinophilic esophagitis (EOE). And the six foods that are most commonly associated with this allergic response are dairy, wheat, soy, eggs, nuts, and seafood/shellfish. Hence why citrus not mentioned in this context. That's why it's important to work with an dietitian who can best help you identify the foods that may trigger your symptoms.
Where do i find the GI on demand courses?

Thank you very much for this video and all the information.
I am currently living in Bolivia (moved from Austria 8 years ago) and was diagnosed with EoE just 2 weeks ago.
I have had 4 endoscopies in the last 7 years. The results where following:
1- Reflux - 2017
2- Reflux - 2020
3- Esophageal candidiasis - had two weeks before recovering from Dengue fever -2023
4- EoE - first time they took biopsies. - 2023
I don't blame any doctor tbh, because the second time was during covid and with Omeprazole it got better.
Then after Dengue it looked like fungus and weak immune system could lead to this.
But the last one the biopsy as the endoscopy both seem like it is EoE.
Now my question would be, does Esophageal candidiasis look like EoE?
I am currently getting Omeprazol and also Nistatina against the candidiasis, but they are not sure if I got that.
One thing I do think would be good to add maybe, is the stress factor. I had the most issues during covid (pregnant wife in Bolivia
and me preparing to get the child at home if needed) and now again due to overload on work and wife again pregnant.
So I think stress has a huge factor as well. I am taking the medication mentioned above, taking things easier, yoga etc. and testing what food does not work for me (in 1 week I know that nuts and hard cheese are not good for me).
Thank you so much again and if you could give me your views on EoE vs. candidiasis look a like or maybe mistake from doc?
Hi thank you for your feedback and sharing your story. This is an interesting question on EoE vs candidiasis. The best way we can help shed some light, is following up with an episode that explores this topic with a leading GI expert. A quick Google search found several scientific articles on the topic, but I would like to explore this question with with an leading GI expert who can help us understand the links, if any, and the differences. www.google.com/search?q=EoE+vs+candidiasis.&oq=EoE+vs+candidiasis.&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIICAEQABgWGB4yCggCEAAYhgMYigUyCggDEAAYhgMYigUyCggEEAAYhgMYigUyCggFEAAYhgMYigXSAQc2MDBqMGo0qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8Please stay tuned.
Thank you very much for the answer.
I would like to see that next episode and if any results of mine needed would also be happy to share of course the examens I got.
Truly appreciated your answer 🙂
My daughter was diagnosed with this, she vomits every meal. She's not nauseous. She's lost too much weight.
It's a struggle to get proper care in the UK.
Thank you for your comment. This is heartbreaking to hear. Not sure if you know about this organization in the UK but their website has a lot of resources and a provider directory. www.eosnetwork.org/ www.eosnetwork.org/find-a-doctor
I would try watching Naturopath Dr stephen Cabrals podcasts where he talk about possible root causes of EOE. I too am in her case
I have this and it is scary to eat in public. Sometimes I can’t swallow water.
That is very scary. Have you seen this episode about trouble swallowing food and liquids? czcams.com/video/rKHg04KIsXs/video.html

*There needs to be a Root Causes and directly tell the people how to HEAL THE ISSUES.
Instead of giving them PPI , need to heal their throats.
Thank you for your comment!
Idk if it's true but dr stephen cabral said EOE is either from enviro/food allergies, certain cancers or parasites.
Chatgbt told my husband it can come from candida. Its difficult when you have to dig for yourself when Dr's say "we don't know what causes this" everything has a reason.
Try an elimination diet. Everyones root cause is different. My big ones are dairy, and smoke. Theres likely others. Look into an auto immune protocol diet and get your body reset
@@slee7991 Thank you , hope your spouse have a speedy recovery.
I just had an Bisopy to see if I have "EOE" , I will have to wait 3 weeks to find out the result.

It's been getting worse for me day by day 😢 I can't swallow anything that's too tough not even lettuce meat oranges anything also I have uncontrolled severe asthma and it's making it worse. Im always choking and throwing up and can't even breathe a lot of the time.

Thank you for sharing your experiences. We cannot provider medical advice, as this channel is for education purposes only. Please share your all of your symptoms and concerns with your healthcare providers in as much detail as possible so they have a full understanding of what you are experiencing.
Is this like you can't eat fish or shrimp?..I can't eat peanut butter.or eggs..I can swallow it I just have an allergy attack after eating these foods.
It’s best to talk with a doctor about your specific food allergies and whether they are related to EoE. EoE is a chronic immune system condition and can be triggered by food allergies. A person can have food allergies and not have EoE, but only a doctor can determine the right diagnosis. EoE is a progressive disease.
We are all the same.... My best friend she comes from brasil but she is more italian than me........we are the fuc.... Same.... I love you 😅😅😅

my 15-year-old daughter has eoe, the biopsy showed that she also has reflux, she has been on oneprazole medications for 2 years, the medications are working, the inflamation has decreased, but too many side effects have occurred and unfortunately the reflux is worse. How should she be treated now? I supplement my daughter with iron, vitamin B complex, vitamin D, magnesium. If it weren't for my awareness and deepening knowledge, my daughter would feel worse Why doesn't the doctor talk about side effects, I'm looking for another herbal method, I don't see how my daughter would be on ppi for the rest of her life, it causes deficiencies The stomach must have acid then all the vitamins are absorbed Maybe someone here, you use different methods and could share
Please 🙏🏼 try diet, low carb diet has helped my husband.
@@alicesais770 thank you for message Can you tell me what exactly your husband eat through the day
So mu daughter should avoid gluten
