I had a test done years ago after throwing up for 19 hours straight.
I Swallowed a camera capsule and then I would drink something they called a milkshake lol . I ate a egg Sandwich that had radiation powder it the egg Sandwich can't eat them to this day. then after so many minutes they would x-ray my stomach to see how much food had emptied down and they did this 2 1/2 and a half hours my stomach was extremely slow.
Yes,I get Choked easily while eating even drinking water because my mouth is so dry and my A esophagus stays inflamed.
You are not alone.

My meals are hard to swallow w/o water. Food gets stuck that leaves me in severe pain until it passes. At times I am afraid to eat. I need to eat small bites. Also, slower than most. Certain foods just do not like me even when they are delicious. Anxious to find out if there is anything else from the tests. Thank you for your encouragement.

I've seen gastroparesis in one lupus patient. I hope you're not too uncomfortable with it, Debbie!

I had a gastroesophageal hernia that was removed in September. Eating is better but healing from the surgery has been difficult. Maybe an endoscopy will bring to light answers to help your symptoms. God be with you!
