Default Choking

I have dysphagia (trouble swallowing) which is apparently related to my myasthenia gravis. Maybe some of you do, too. When my generalized symptoms are worse, my swallowing gets worse also. I apologize because this isn't a pleasant topic, but one of the things that always catches me off-guard is that I tend to choke on my own saliva. I'm experiencing more of this type of choking right now because my symptoms in general are worse. Yes, I've told my doctors, and we're trying to do what we can to treat the problems I'm having. But if any of you have this particular problem, what do you do to help deal with it, if anything?

Thanks,
Erin
