Can anyone help me? I have a problem
with liquids lodging in my throat. I
know when it happens and if I make it to
the sink quickly, I can cough it up.
Recently, it caught up with me and I
blacked out before I reached the sink and
had a bad fall. Fortunately, I
recovered. A specialist has told me
there is nothing wrong with my throat.
Can anyone give me a diagnosis?

Go see a different docter and make sure he
know the problem.
Are there certin liquids that do this or
is it just at randomn times with different
drinks? Has this always happened or if
not how long has it been going on? Sounds
like you need a new docter.

This is a random situation with any
liquid. Only noticed last five years.
Will try new specialist.

Has your throat been x-rayed? Has a
biopsy been done?
Does this happen at times when you might
be stressed (even if you aren't aware of
it)?? Stress could easily cause something
like this - but you still need to rule out
medical conditions!!
Some people have a long or fat uvula
(thing that hangs at back of throat) - has
anyone looked at that as a possible cause?

Thank you all for your posts. I'll pass
them on to my gp when he sets up an
appointment with another specialist.
