Default just a bit of choking

OK, so my symptoms seem to be going bulbar. I'm occasionally choking on my saliva (I mean it's going down the wrong pipe, and I cough. That's what people mean by "choking on saliva," right?). Also, once recently I swallowed and the saliva went up my nose (giving me that "water in the nose" feeling I remember from swimming as a kid).

This is typical MG stuff, right? So far it's just now and then, like once a day. I'm just wondering: is there some point at which these symptoms are considered dangerous? I did mention them to my doctor, but I told him they were very mild.

Thanks. Any other tips will be appreciated. I always like to check in here when I have a new symptom.

Abby

When I had my terrible sore throat this weekend, that is the feeling I had. It was like I was choking on my spit. It was awful. Since my sore throat has been better, I do not have this feeling anymore.

Wow, Linda, isn't it crazy how teenagers think! I'm glad at least your doctors figured it out. I haven't had my drink come out my nose yet. That's something to look forward to!
