I NEED ADVISE

PLEASE

THANK YOU!

Dump your doctor and find a new one, immediately.

I agree with Bette you need to find another doctor this one is a nut job! I had trouble sleeping and choking and it turned out to be a combination of too much stomach acid and a heart problem! There are tests they can do to figure out why you have trouble sleeping and you need a doctor that will listen to you.

Right now, your life is at risk.  You need to be working with a Primary Care Physician to determine the steps needed to get you healthy!  Obstructive sleep apnea can kill.  Please get help from your pcp ASAP.
