I Just Had A Really Strange Experience. I Choked On

Question: I just had a really strange experience. I choked on my drink while having lunch, and started coughing really hard. Hard enough to make me feel pressure in my head when I was done. Then, my eyes crossed and I couldn’t uncross them, and the room started spinning or rocking like I was on a ship. Should I be concerned? This has never happened to me before. I thought I was going to pass out. I sat back in my chair and breathed until it passed but I am freaked out.
Brief Answer:
You should not worry about, no other events can happen.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
I think you have had symptoms of choking and the crossed eyes you had are signs of lack of oxygenation.
I think you should not worry about it because it isn't going to happen anymore and since you were choked to water no other events can happen later, you may be sure.
Hope I have answered the question.
