Hi! I was diagnosed with "EoE" last month. I've had occasional difficulty swallowing food for many years, and given my asthma, hay fever and tree nut allergies the gastroenterologist seemed to know straight away what was up, and booked me in for an endoscopy.
My question is, how involved was the "process of elimination" in determining what the trigger for EoE is? I have an appointment with an immunologist next month. I get symptoms maybe once or twice a year, so I'm not looking forward to a slow process of dietary elimination... Tree nuts are easy to avoid, but I'm rather fond of cheese...
