I gag when I try to eat something in the morning. I NEED to eat something before work. What do I do?!

Question: I gag when I try to eat something in the morning. I NEED to eat something before work. What do I do.?

I say I NEED to eat in the morning because I take medicine then and I don't want to take them on an empty stomach. This started a few weeks ago. It started with the same breakfast not tasting as good. So I tried different foods and could eat small portions but now, if I try to eat anything in the morning, I just gag. It's like my gag reflex has swollen or gotten more sensitive. I don't know if that even possible. 3-4 hours after I'm awake, I can eat with no problem. Has anyone else had this problem.? Does anyone have any advice.? Thanks guys :)

P.S. Im positive I'm not pregnant.Health Question & Answer

Answers:

I know exactly what your talking about. This has happened to me my whole life, so I've tried alot of foods just to see what works.
For me, I just take Activia yougurt, or any other kind, after I wake up. Then after a while I can have a piece of fruit and a half of pop-tart or something.
Just keep your foods light and you'll be good :)Health Question & Answer
