You got me Nature Boy! Right in my epiglottis!
The only thing I knew about the epiglottis came from this Bugs Bunny clip
Last summer, I was eating peanuts and you know those wispy brown skins? They got caught on something in my throat and I was coughing so bad I started gagging. I ran out of the house so I could barf outside. After a few more minutes of gagging and coughing I was ok. Then I noticed that it was hard to swallow. So I did what every guy does and just ignored it for a few months and hoped it would go away.
Then when ignoring it did not work, I went to the doctor. They sent me to get some tests and told me that 'They got me right in my epiglottis!'.
My epiglottis does not close when I drink and eat and there is nothing they could do.
A month after this the damn thing starts working better. I cough less and swallow better.
It was just waiting for me to waste time and money at the doctor.
Now my knee hurts.....
