WTH...Anyone Else Experience This???
I was awaken out of my sleep to a choking spell like no other. I couldn't breathe and every time I tried to swallow it only got worse. I was sweating and my heart was beating fast. I know it was acid reflux but the acid was just sitting in my chest. I started wheezing as if I had phlegm from a cold in my chest, but it wasn't a cold. I just kept burping and choking. I felt like I was dying because every time I tried to breathe, I couldn't. I tried to drink water but even that was a task. It just kept coming back up. This episode lasted for over an hour. WTH is going on??? I do not know!!! All I know is it wasn't a very good feeling. I've never had acid reflux and nothing that bad before. It scared me so bad...Has this ever happened to anyone before????

DAMN that sounds scary. I've never had this but when I hear phlegm and mucus I think allergies. Allergies can hit at any time with things that never bothered you before like feather pillows or dust mites.
I tracked my allergies by keeping a log of what was going on when I had the reaction. Clothing; fabrics like sheets, pillows, etc; what I ate that day; what I used such as soap, lotion, hair dye. Over time yu'll see the patterns.
A past pcp taught me this. I discovered intollerrances to many things that did not show up on multiple allergy scratch/ injection tests. Hopefully this was a one time thing for you. Feel better.

Wow that sounds scary and very familiar, this is VERY common with those with the lap band if we get too tight, when we lie down we automatically regurgitate food and liquids up through out nose and mouth...if we don't get a small unfill and if this happens to us frequently it can cause pneumonia and/or a band slip.
Doing asthma, allergy season I'm been having trouble lately. Had a breathing treatment the other day and it helps. I"ve been having to use cough drops because of the phlegm.

yes i use to have acid reflux years ago and it went away when i changed my diet...no its been back since i had surgery 5 days ago. seems like every morning around 2am it hits me like a freight train and doesnt subside until about 4:30am. my doctor put me on nexium but that stuff takes a day or two to start working. last nite i elevated my head and was able to go back to sleep. if you sit straight up it goes away...its just when youre laying almost flat its bad.
i would get some pepcid ac or something like that and it should go away in a day or two. if it hits tonite put an extra pillow or two under your head and you should be ok.
