I haven't actually coughed up any solids, but I'm pretty sure that I've been inhaling bits of the things I'm eating/drinking lately...My gag reflex is totally paralyzed lately...

At least you know that your diaphragm is working well...My speech pathologist told me that as long as my cough is strong, and I can at least cough up anything I inhale, I should be okay...Sucks to have to worry about that, though....

I'd think about maybe grinding up your meds and putting them in jam or a pudding of some sort to avoid that happening...

That must have been so frightening for you--sorry you went through that!
