Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 You might be able to get an anti-nausea pill to take with the Mtx. Then you might not vomit in your sleep. I've been prescribed one because I'm having so much trouble with reflux and the reflux drugs aren't totally taking care of it. Last night, I considered surgery for it. dd In a message dated 9/23/2008 11:19:13 A.M.

My grandfather died of choking to death on his throw-up. He was drunk, and that is the way he died, in a hotel. I sure don't want to be like him. I just take the mtx before bed, because of the side effects. I've tried taking it while I'm up, and I get REALLY sick. So, I have taken mtx for years, and it just started this, so not doing well on it this time around. **************Looking for simple solutions to your real-life financial challenges?

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 Group; I am very worried about anyone throwing up while they are asleep. I have heard and read many stories where people have choked to death while throwing up after they went to sleep. Please do not take any medicine that will cause you to throw up while your asleep because of choking to death. Stories about getting drunk and falling to sleep and choking to death is usually what happens. I am sure no one so far is sick from getting drunk. I have heard several people say they woke up throwing up. Its very lucky you was able to wake up. So please do what every you can to keep from throwing up during sleep. I am just worried about this happening to one of the group. Please please be very careful and believe me of what I am saying. gentle kind hugs.
