Is it ok to not have a gag reflex or should i be worried dr said i don't have 1 he said he wasn't to worried but his face and voice told a diff story?

Stumping the Doctor: Your doctor may have just been reacting to what sounds like an odd question. If you are eating and drinking you have a gag reflex. It may be lessened in any given situation but to swallow without difficulties may be all the proof you need that there is no problem to be concerned with.
