This is what it is. I wake in the morning and as soon as my feet hit the floor i start gaging like i have to . I have found out that if i drink water it goes away sometimes so i keep water by my bed. It even happens in the middle of the night if i get up to go to the bathroom. What is that about? Am i hungry and my body is saying feed me or is it something else. Has anyone else had this problem? if so what did you do.

Is it really acidy?   Reflux maybe?   You should bring it up to your doc, maybe something easy to fix.

I had gagging issues shortly after surgery from GERD. I couldn't sleep flat and my throat was irritated. My surgeon prescribed Carafate. Haven't had a problem since.

Please call your surgeon. Good luck!

Seems like you have gotten good advice.  Make a note of what  you are eating before bed including the time.  Also make notes of how you are sleeping (postions, number of pillows and the time that you get into bed).  In addition to that jot down the time that these episodes happen and what/how you feel when they do.  This will give your doctors some insight and hopefully provide them with a plan as to how to help you.  Best wishes to you.
The question that I am asked most often:  
 Is that your hair??????
