Yeah, nutsberry, that foam/saliva is like something out of a scifi movie, I just sit with my mouth open and it just flows out. Years ago when I lived in Albq., I had an episode with a rice dish, it got so bad WKD called the paramedics - one of the guys explained to me that the point where the esophagus meets the stomach clenches up and you get spasms and it feels as if you're having a heart attack. He told me when this happens to sit up straight and try to relax/meditate and try not to panic. He also said to eat very slowly and not talk during meals so I never eat with WKD (that's ok, he likes to eat in bed Roman style). I also don't eat turkey unless its in thin sliced processed deli form, like the Oscar Meyer lunch meat sold in the plastic tubs. sounds like your paramedic knew more than the docs in the er i dealt with---they gave me a can of ginger ale & told me to stomp up and down. almost 'exploded' my food/windpipe!  still groggy from being put under for an hour. the gastro surgeon said they get tons of people in around with turkey issues at thanksgiving.
