I have started to choke spontaneously on my own saliva. Anyone else?

I have no problems eating or drinking. But in the middle of the night I have waked up spontaneously choking on "something" and gasping for breath.
It's scary for 20 seconds. It has happened a dozen times or more. I have never mentioned it to doctor.

That sounds like sleep apnea to me. You can get a sleep monitor that you use for 3 nights to see what is happening with snoring and breathing and oxygen levels.
