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

I have the same issue. I believe it comes with aging in part. It’s an issue with the swallowing mechanism where part of it may stop working.
Also-smoking cigarettes a number of years causes this issue . I quit 4 years ago and still have the swallowing issue. I would see a doctor-mine got progressively worse so I wouldn’t wait.
Hope this helps

Hi Retha, have you ever considered a speech language pathologist to help with the swallowing issues?
