Choking at night
I am getting choked when I am just about to sleep or sometimes wake up in the middle of night gasping for breathe. I am currently on Olzole as treatment for heartburn and gas. I am unable to understand whether it is sleep apnea or due to GERD. It used to happen earlier as well but the frequency was low. It has started doing it more often now a days.
