brushing teeth & gagging

[Angie1960]

Does anyone else go through periods for gagging & vomitting when brushing you teeth?

I do this quite often also, no dx for me.
sometimes I brush my teeth in the shower, the standing up instead of hunching over the sink seems to help.

I could not believe it when I saw this post. I have been diagosed with MS for about a year and more and more I'm discovering things I'd just "gotten used to" as being my special quirks are MS related. I have to time when I can brush my teeth to avoid gagging and feeling as though I will regurgitate. I always wondered why I do that.

Only when I'm pregnant ;-)

I wonder if it could be MS related - my mother had the gaging but didn't though up as far as I know.  She had early onset dementia and I have recently read about the sugestion of a new form of MS called subcortical MS which leads to dementia - and it runs in her family (the dememtia)

I get the gagging when I brush my teeth but I don't vomit. I have big issues with vomitting. lol Did enough of that when I had my gallstones.  The gagging actually just started this year for me but with everything else going on I just didn't really give it much thought. I just figured it's something else weird going on with me that I didn't want to acknowledge.
