Every So Often I Wake Up Short Of Breath With
Every so often I wake up short of breath with the sensation of a ball in my throat and I cannot breathe. I snap out of it in a panic but it s scary. Its as if I am trying to swallow an object and it creates an anxiety panic attack with heart racing. Also notice if laying down on back my throat seems to close and stop air once in a while. Never get tHis During the day and no issue swallowing in general. Is this an esophagus issue?

HI
Well come to HCM
Breathing difficulty during sleep without any other symptoms may be the functional condition and hysteric attack is very likely, at the most the condition can be treated on tentative basis for hyperacidity with Tab Omeprazole 40 mg and Tab Domperidone 30 mg once in day, take care.
