Pleae comfort! Choaking within my sleep and cant swallow during the hours of daylight also
This has started a few weeks ago, and it drives me crazy. I have not be to a doctor because i dont have insurance, but i know i need to be in motion. For some reason, my left nostral stays stuff up, but besides that, my problems are this.
1.I be aware of like when i suck in through my snout, the mucus , gets stuck at the back of my throat, , and it get stuck there, and i have to do an extra swollow to catch it to go down. This is also when i just try and swallow my saliva.
2. I cant swallow at adjectives alot during the day,and its really annoying and scary. my mother say im getting nervous, i dnot know how true this is, but the more i dont think give or take a few it the more it doesnt happen, but aggain, why is it happening within the first place?
3. I choke and sufficate at night during sleep. Alot of time, i cant sleep at all because i cant swallow, or it feel like im not draining properly. It feels resembling again my saliva or something gets stuck in my throat, which immediatelymakes me startled and nervous and wakes me up, this puts me underneath much anxiety and drives me crazy.
4. Somes if i finally am able to sleep, i will wake up, sufficating, and i hop out the bed trying to get my breathe, like someone is trying to wipe out me or something. Its so scary. This may happen twice a week, most night i cant fall asleep until 4 or 5 am and im back up at 8. I guess my body get so tired, that i am able to sleep properly, but the florida sun always wake me up.
Im very scared as to whats wrong next to me, it may be sleep apnea, but again how did i get it, and how do i get rid of this? Is this punishment from drinking bad all my energy? Im not over weight, but not to skinny, i eat discouraging like everyone else, but my size is cool. Im 6'4 230 pds.
Whatever i have, i want to achieve rid of it, im 31 years old, and i dont want to feel similar to this ever. I dont know why my left nostral stays stuffed up. My mom called and said to pilfer 2 rolaids before i go to bed, and allow 5 hours to stir by without eating since i fall asleep? How would this help me?
I cant swallow my spit, but for some intention i can swallow anything else like water, or food confidently? Does this mean my airway is blocked and the saliva is sticking right there?
Answer: Sounds approaching sleep apnea! Have a medical professional give you an evaluation. If it's not sleep apnea, I wouldn't be surprised if it were a thyroid issue.
Losing a few pounds will ABSOLUTELY support either way.
It is probably blocked, not sure though. If one of your friends mom is a nurse, or dad is a doctor, ask them ok? Go see a doctor. Make sure you capture a check up.
It sounds like you have post-nasal drip that builds up until you stir up choking. It can also make it hard to swallow when you grain like you have a frog surrounded by your throat (or a sore throat).
I think it is possible you have some sinus problems or allergies. You may want to dance to an allergy/immunology doctor like I do. They test you to find out what your sensitivity is to specific allergens. Then they can offer you shots to boost your immune system against these things so your symptoms improve in time.
When your nostrils are stuffed up, use Sudafed.
Your mom think you have acid reflux that wake you up at night. That's why she wants you to settle your stomach near Rolaids.
The fact that you have these symptoms when you are awake system it's not sleep apnea..
There is no simple answer. You seem to have some sort of respiratory disorder that wishes to be handled by a doctor. Based on what you have written here your symptoms are serious ample to be seen in the ER. Please find a clinic surrounded by your area and just turn. You cannot be refused treatment. At 31, you need to step up and kind your own medical decisions. Good luck!
