Default Swallowing and choking issues?

Quick question about swallowing difficulties. I wonder if anyone here has swallowing problems? I imagine others might. I am having more difficulty swallowing and choking, including choking on my own saliva. (Sorry, perhaps too much information, but it's a problem!) I reported it to a doctor last week, who prescribed a stomach-acid reducing medication, but this does not seem to be helping. I think it is the MG, and not a digestion issue.

One neurologist in the past said that there is nothing that can be done if you are choking on your own saliva. Is this true? It is a difficult thing.

Thanks so much,
Erin
