My Airway Closed Off! What Was It?

A very scary thing happened to me last night. I awoke suddenly unable to breathe. It was not sleep apnea, but a rare condition called Sleep-Related Laryngospasm. I'll tell you all about it.

Good video. You’re my expert after you “coached” me on how to give injections in my leg. It is still mind blowing I have done this a couple dozen times. Severe needle phobia here. You’re a treasure.

Scary, but I’m glad you’re okay. I’ve never heard of this, so very useful.

@@DrMidwife06911 I am fine. This video is a repost. I was contacted by Laryngopedia who wanted me to add a credit for the video that I used. I haven’t had another attack in the many months since I originally posted this.
