Ok so I was falling asleep when I did manage to sleep for a few minutes or hr don't know. I will say the way I was laying, on my side with my pillows being to high, going forward would cause me to stop breathing since my airway would get blocked. Ok to i wake up all of a sudden the way I had my head tilted caused me to stop breathing. I had this horrible pressure feeling on top of me I took away a pillow which helped me get more straight in bed and allowed me to breath. Along with the pressure my head felt deprived of air. My heart was beating hard and I had trouble getting it to calm down. I feel like if I had not woken up when I did I for sure would have died tonight. My lips feel numb and my throats feels swollen and paralyzed. I'm afraid to go to sleep again.
Omg what if I hadn't woken up. I mean I fell asleep while watching a movie on my phone I had slip down I had two pillows. That made it so my chin rested on my chest. ( I have big breasts) and I was on my side. My doctor had warn me how the weight of my breasts in a certain position, which I am thinking the one I was in tonight, could press on the air way and not allow me to breath. To top it off I had a late dinner so I also feel the whole throats irritated from the acid reflux. And we had the window open and AC going so my throat also feels irritated like I'm going to get a sore throats.
To top it off this scare has caused me to have a loose stomach. :(
Omg I'm just stuck on the awful sensation I felt and how if I had not woken up and would have never woken up again.
For fox sake this weekend is my birthday celebration. I am to go out with my parents for some good time together. I moved out of the house at 16. So I have not had a good opportunity to spend time with them since then.
Should I go to the hospital and get evaluated??
What if that threw my heart out of synch. I'm getting moments were my head gets heavy and I get blurry vision.
Why did this happen? Has anyone ever woken up from not breathing?

I read an article on yahoo. About a man who "choke" in his sleep and died. He had slept on the couch. I mean the times I've fallen asleep on the couch I would slide down from the arm rest and I would get choked up from my chin touching my chest. And I just think this is how I could have died tonight.
I feel like my throats will close up if I fall asleep again. Heck it feels like it's going to close up right now that I'm up.
The weird thing is that when I initially first woke up. I tried gasping in the air and I couldn't because I was still in a position that prevented me from taking in air. And when I laid down slightly elevated, it took me a bit to get the air hunger and my pulse to calm down.
