Im afraid to sleep

This is night two of intense coughing attacks resulting in throwing up. I can't get any sleep because everytime I feel like I'm starting to drift off into a nice sleep I'm waken up by a coughing fit. Rinse wash repeat. Since sleep makes you feel better I will never feel better because I can't get any real sleep

Do you have acid reflux?

Acid reflux often can cause sleep disturbances I recently found this out @KayraJordyn

@Faintking Indeed, it can. Making the headposts of your bed higher than the bottom of the bed can help. Aka bricks, hardcover books, anything that can match up and keep your esophagus higher than your stomach can help. Just ask Mary J. Blige!
