Hi KD folks just me, Lori from Las Cruces, Nm. Personal reasons for change of last name but still me! I have had achalaisa since 2012. Any men or females that have this? New cricopharengeal spasms make upper throat tight..hurt with spasms. Also, left foot spasms. Some of this new since coming off chronic pain management. So glad to be off meds but chronic pain just a part of life. I would rather feel pain then be on that stuff again! My first nephew just diagnosed with KD and a severe case. We are looking for a doctor who can deal with us. Any ideas or names of docs in area would be appreciated. Nice to be back in touch with ya folks!

Lori, no doctors shown in NM, but several shown in AZ and TX. Go to: KD Doctors

If you find one in your area, please ask him/her if we can list him in our directory.

Ref: Achalaisa, did your doctor give you some swallowing exercises? I have been doing them for years and they have really helped.
