I Choked On A Roast Beef Sandwich Today. It Lasted
I choked on a roast beef sandwich today. It lasted about 1 minute without air I tried to take a drink but it wouldn't go down but somehow I think it loosened it enough to throw up. I was super tired after choking and now my chest hurts many hours later. Is this normal? My throats doesn't hurt but my chest feels like I worked out my upper body? Just want to make sure this is normal and if so, what happened during the choking episode. I was scared and thought I was going to die because I couldn't breathe for 1 minute or maybe a little longer than a minute. My face was red and my eyes were bloodshot red and watery afterwards. I'm fine now just really sore in the chest area and want to make sure that is normal.
