It's funny you ask.

I just spoke to my neurologist about it recently. I've been getting the this reflex out of sequence or something and it just locks up briefly. It's linked in with breathing and sinuses and I'm not really sure exactly what's going wrong. She suggested that it's not a concern unless it's accompanied by choking. If I were you I'd check with my doctor anyway.

I've been having trouble with additional difficulty sleeping because I snore when I drift off and it wakes me. I've been doing throat and tongue exercises and propped up the end of the bed a little. It sems to be helping.

There must be some kind of nerve thing going on. I've also lost my gag reflex. I'm going to have to get some epicac or something for emergency.
