Thank you.

I'm curious--if you take some medicine, does that trigger the same aversion?

i can't even swallow most medicine in the first place, but still unclear if it's entirely physical difficulty or if it's my brain just making the physical part difficult
So the answer is sort of but probably not entirely. Textures and tastes play a part in making it MORE difficult for sure. I take chewables and liquids when possible, chewables have better taste usually, liquids terrible for taste - even knowing it helps doesn't make body want to keep it down. for pills it's like I forget HOW to swallow, it will stay and stay and stay in my mouth until i can taste it and spit in panic. I can hide really small ones inside food but some medications can't go with food and some just too big regardless how i try.
