I stop breathing at night. I've had different doctors tell me different things.
1. asthma
2. anxiety
3. acid reflux
4. sleep apnea
5. early stages of COPD
The Dr who said it was sleep apnea wanted to send me to a sleep clinic, but I didn't go. So I'm not sure which dx was correct, but all of them can cause it (according to the Drs I've seen). It is scary to say the least, and probably something you'd want to get checked out! Stay safe!
