Suggest Treatment For Silent Reflux
I .have been told I have silent reflux What can I do when I wake from sleep coughing, choking and not breathing Frantic I found myself jumping up and down and then pinched my nose shut and then miraculously I could breathe. Thoughts of cutting my throat opened came to me but I didn t have the ability to move. I thought I would pass out and die right there. What can I do if this happens again?
