Why am I gagging when trying to eat?

Question

I haven't been able to eat anything today. For some reason and I can't figure it out is whenever I try to eat anything solid I start to gag and can't get anything down my throat.

My stomach feels fine but I start gagging when I try to eat solids. I did manage to get some melted ice cream down a few minutes ago though and it stayed down.

I then tried to eat some cut up hot dogs but I started gagging again and can't get it to go down?

I want to eat as I'm really hungry still but nothing solid will go down and ice cream doesn't fill me up enough.

Answer 1

You might be getting acid reflux disease which is making you gag when eating. Although it might just be a temporary thing.

Are you stressed and nervous about anything? I know when I've been nervous or stressed about something my stomach starts feeling jittery and I can't swallow anything that is solid.
