Pain in esophagus

Asked for Male, 39 Years

I have had difficultly swallowing for the last few years, food feels like it stops right above diaphragm. I have had an endoscopy in June with nothing out of the ordinary noted. I'm currently taking 20mg of Prilosec daily. About 12 hours ago, I was eating leftover pork chops for breakfast, and had a bite get stuck. It was there for several painful minutes and I vomited to get it out. Since then I have felt throat sore, fever, and a wheezing exhale. No pain , should I see a doctor?
