Avatar n tn so all my life ive had a sensitive gag reflex. going to the dentist, swimming, terrible smells, and a few other reasons would trigger my gag reflex. however its never been that bad, just super sensitive to the above factors. i just went to mexico for spring break and had what i think was very slight food poisoning. my stomache was always slightly queasy/nauseous and whenever i started drinking i would start dry heaving cause of my gag reflex.

Avatar f tn s because your gag reflex is up alot so the feeling of the tooth brush atleast for me is what made me throw up
Avatar f tn I did this 8-11 an 3days weeks I was told it was nothing, And I'm 12 weeks today and I don't do it anymore. But you could still run it by your doctor.
Avatar f tn m having a ton of nausea and morning sickness, have been the whole pregnancy. I have also noticed that my gag reflex is extremely more sensitive than before, I've got a cold and the coughing and the drainage is constantly making me gag. Has anyone else noticed their gag reflex being more sensitive?
799695 tn?1257579598 Has anyone ever had throat muscle contractions which pressed on the gag reflex and made you throw up? I've had swallowing problems before, but now it seems like my throat muscles are becoming spastic and just contracting and making me throw up. I also just got over the swine flu a few weeks ago and have heard that illness like the flu can bring about a relapse. I know i'm not sick from the flu, because I can clearly feel my muscles tightening in my throat. Is this common?
Avatar f tn My son has a very strong gag reflex he vomits or gags very easily if he smells something or eats something he does not like and when he gets really upset and cries really hard he vomits too, any suggestions?
Avatar f tn In order to relieve the terrible feeling of nausea and dry heaves I triggered my gag reflex by sticking my finger down my throat and I vomited bile. I have generalized weakness, loss of appetite but NO fever, sore joints, bloating or diarreha. The nausea subsided for about 48 hours but it returned today with the same outcome. Nausea and vomiting bile. What does it mean when you vomit bile?
1994124 tn?1422574099 My gag reflex was sooo sensitive during my first tri. When i reached 17 weeks it improved a little bit. Now that im turning 20 weeks, it is starting to get oversensitive again. Esp brushing teeth and taking vitamins. Cant take vitamins without the juice to gulp it down with! Does anybody in here got their gag reflex improve???
570413 tn?1299532661 Which do you have? A hyper gag reflex (extremely sensitive gag reflex) or a hypo gag reflex (the absent of gag reflex)?
Avatar f tn How is your gag reflex normally? If say you are brushing your teeth/tongue and go to far back will it make you gag? The reason I ask is maybe check the back of your throat for anything coming in contact with your hangy ball or tonsils. Another thought is too much acid in your stomach. I'd avoid all those things you said cause the gagging. You can live without dairy and chocolate. The laughing and exercise is a different story of course.
Avatar f tn ) swallowed, saliva, and the old gag reflex kicked in. Which reminded me that I wanted to ask...does anyone else have a strong gag reflex? I don't mean all through life, I mean lately. I had to stop putting water on my toothbrush last year, just toothpaste. And I cannot brush my teeth for two minutes at a time, I'll be puking in the sink. I am frequently choking on my own saliva, and very, very often, I have difficulty convincing my throat to work when I want to swallow food.
Avatar f tn I think I have lost my gag reflex. I am just seeking help with a professional for this. Will my gag reflex ever return?
Avatar n tn It could be psychological associations with those items, it could be a physical thing (a gag reflex that comes from an unusual esophagus shape or something) or it could be that you just need to try different preparations of those items. Hard to judge which, but I'd talk to a doctor in case the problem is physical.
Avatar f tn I started feeling like I have something around my throat throughout the day and will just throw up. Sort of like a sensitive gag reflex. I can't put a necklace or turtleneck shirt on, it will make me gag. Food feels like it's not going all the way down. It has been coming and going for two weeks-no with no rhym or reason and I've been feeling pretty good for a few weeks. Doesn't make sense.
Avatar m tn I seriously need some answers or suggestions It seems like the overuse of my vocal chords or Larynx, triggers my gag reflex. I perform many long speeches and struggle to get through them without randomly gagging. After about 20 minutes of talking, it they will hit me. If I try to continue with the speech, I will just continue to gag until i throw up a little bit. I am a very anxious person and for the most part have my anxiety completely under control.
Avatar m tn Have reduced sedation, or no sedation? I have a very strong gag reflex and have fear of vomiting. Even at the dentist, this becomes quite a problem. Can the gag reflex be largely stopped by sprays? In this case i would be fine. If I have strong gagging reaction, I might get into panic. 2. I have read about capsule endoscopy, which seems to avoid any such problems. Would that be an alternative?
Avatar m tn ve had the same symptoms on/off for over 11 years...I do notice the gag reflex more now...But I still do gag when I brush my teeth (or should I say my tongue) yet in the office it didn't show any reflex at all...IDK? Perhaps it's just decreased...But all my other symptoms come and go with good days and bad days Also Selma my Doctor told me recent studies are saying a lack of gag reflex may or may not be clinically significant...Do you know anything about this?
Avatar f tn m still coughing a lot. Why oh why must the coughing trigger the gag reflex? I have a bad gag reflex anyway but the coughing is making it worse. Anyone else dealing with this?
Avatar f tn An increased gag reflex is common in pregnancy not to mention the neasua so that a common issue.
Avatar f tn Few months ago a lady posted...a helpful way to brush your teeth without all the nausea and puking...it actually helped a lot....use very little toothpaste. .don't lean over the sink..stand up straight...and smile while brushing your teeth....I did it and actually stopped puking while attempting to brushy teeth...
1769619 tn?1313888160 The whole lot of us has or has had chronic sinus problems. For my brother, I know mucus plus an excellent gag reflex generally makes for a bad time (and yes, he does have the GERD as well). I've been taking the Guaifenesin type product to thin secretions, and I honestly think that has made things worse for me, at least as far as the vomiting. When it was thick globs of stuff it just hacked right up. Now...it's just stringy and coming from everywhere! So gross.
