i had the sensation of almost choking on my tongue too, and it turned out it was sleep apnea. i'm not familiar with any jaw sling thing other than a chin strap, which is used to keep the mouth from opening while sleeping. but a chin strap is not a "cure" or even a treatment for sleep apnea. you'll still have the sensation of choking on your tongue. have you had a sleep test yet?
Uh, no, I haven't had a sleep test. I haven't actually connected my tongue flopping with a suspicion that I have apnea. I think I'll have to look into what apnea isand go from there. Thanks for the reply.
