MarianneUnfaithful, I do NOT actually feel sick. It seems to happen for no reason. I have a sensation sometimes that my airway is blocked... Strange...

Hmmm... I think it must be related to PCOS... It seems I'm not alone. PCOS is so scary because I feel out of control of my body sometimes. These strange side effects can scare someone crazy. I have gained weight and my gag/vomit reflexes are worse. I guess one more reason I need to CONQUER this weight issue Why does it have to be so hard?

I think I have something similar to this. I don't vomit or anything, but throughout the day at least 2 or three times something weird happens. I get a kind of mucus-y feeling in my throat and it causes me to cough/gag until I eat something. Sometimes I'll just chew on two antacids and it is fine other times I have to eat something more substantial even if it hasn't been that long since I ate. I don't understand it.

What you're describing is different from my issue---but there are similar complications.

I've got GERD, and my doc scheduled an endoscopy when he made that diagnosis---which led us to discover I've got Barrett's Esophagus, a condition (they think) is caused by regular acid washing from stomach into the throat. The cells in the throat are changed because of the reflux, and it's considered pre-cancerous. I now have to get an endoscopy once a year to make sure it doesn't go cancerous (which is a pretty nasty sucker, the rates aren't great).

Barrett's isn't very common (10% of GERD patients, but also seen in bulimia patients, etc). But I'd only been having reflux symptoms for a few years, and I'm only 26---my doc was shocked I had it. So I'd say you should DEFINITELY go see a gastroenterologist, both due to the constant vomiting (I can't believe you haven't already gone in!!), AND because if you've been throwing stomach acid around like that, you're at risk, too. Good luck!!

Of course the game is rigged. Don't let that stop you--if you don't play, you can't win.
