Re: “I got something going on where food gets stuck at the top of my stomach and it hurts like heck to get by the blockage....”
Read up on gastroparesis, associated with both diabetes and Covid-19. It can cause food to harden in the stomach, creating blockages. "Symptoms include heartburn, nausea, vomiting, and feeling full quickly when eating."

If this is what's diagnosed, the doctor doing the endoscopy may opt to cut the valve that empties your stomach - called the the pylorus - allowing food to advance more easily. On your own, you can try eating more meals (six), but SMALLER meals. Small amounts of food are less likely to get stuck.

But, of course, you said "top of my stomach" and I have no way of knowing if it's really the stomach or esophagus. If food is getting stuck in the esophagus, then you've got a different problem.
