Rach,
That is how I found out I was allergic to the meds. Dr. sent me in for a swallowing test/xray and it showed my throat and tongue was actually swollen {and I thought is was the MG making my throat muscle weak} he said the swelling in my throat was triggering the gag reflex. Something to ask your Dr. about.
