I'd probably talk to a real doctor. Good luck getting back to sleep tonight.
You also might need a sleep study. |

I really don't want to sleep right now. I will probably call my Dr in the morning. I seem fine right now.

Sleep apnea. I get that on occasion if I sleep on my back, but it clears up within a few seconds.

Overweight?
How long ago did you eat? Is your head propped at all by your pillow? The reason I ask these specific questions, I had the same thing happen to me and the doc said I needed to lose weight, not eat 2-3 hours before going to bed and try to keep my chest and head slightly propped up to prevent my stomach's contents from backing up against my esophagus.

Respiratory event=load and go (i.e. load PT into ambulance and roll), even if things seem okay at the moment.

I haven't eaten recently. Head propped. I did burp a few times after I started breathing again. |

Sleep study.
Try sleeping in a recliner tonight. Laid back but your head slightly elevated. |

Do you have acid reflux symptons?

Probably sleep apnea, based on your limited info. Assuming you werent wheezing, just gasping?
Try sitting up, like in a recliner, while sleeping until that sleep study. Start losing weight too, though that doesnt help all forms. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Do you have acid reflux symptons? That was another thing that I had extremely bad before losing some weight and changing my diet. Once I took care of my reflux, waking up gasping for air pretty much stopped.

I've heard thin white males are more likely to wake up with a collapsed lung for whatever reason... serious.

No wheeze just gasping.
