Argh.

Okay, if this was actual nausea, I would know how to deal with it. It's not. Instead, my throat is in a near constant state of 'about to yawn' but I can't get it out, so instead it feels . . . something that I cannot find a word for, but trust me, it isn't a good feeling. It's kinda like having my gag reflex tickled with a feather crossed with a very tight feeling in my throat.

Soooo, of all fucking things, my *throat* is feeling queasy. This leads to choke-gagging, which leads to my stomach suddenly feeling *very* unhappy. So far, the only thing that seems to be helping is actively eating or swallowing something. Just making the movements, without anything in my mouth, doesn't do anything.

This is driving me nuts. I have several things that help with a queasy tummy. I have no clue what to do about this. As it is, I'm sitting here without a shirt on because I cannot handle anything touching my throat. Even having my hair brush it is bad.

I'm beginning to suspect that I'm dealing with an extended mood-swing induced panic attack.

What you're describing sounds to me like my body's way of telling me that I'm going to throw up eventually. It's like being in a constant state of half-gag. In me it is related to my acid reflux. It was a problem I had for a long time before they did my upper-gi and discovered my various and sundry stomach problems. Acid Reflux can be a constant problem in pregnancy as the baby pushes on your tummy and causes you're stomach to reflux. I would also recommend to try to find something like Prilosec or something that your doc or midwife recommends as safe for baby and you to help keep the acid down.
