A member asked:
I have had three episodes where i wake up at night gagging and retching. what is causing this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Acid Reflux: You are likely getting drainage from somewhere. Since the problem is retching and gagging, it is either coming from your nose or from your stomach. The most common problem that manifests itself at nighttime like that is from acid reflux. In the sleep literature, we have found the people reflux significantly between 10 pm and 2am. Reflux burns. Nasal drainage doesn't usually burn as much
