Question For Ya.

Okay, guys this is SUPER weird, but raise your hand if you've ever heard of a condition where a person's uvula is enlarged. (It's not what you may think; it's that dangly thing at the back of your throat.) He's going to kill me if he knows I wrote this on here, but Morgan has it right now. He noticed it yesterday after lunch. We didn't eat anything out of the norm (unfortunately, fast food is norm for us.) I told him maybe it was an allergic reaction to something and to drink some benadryl because he was having a hard time getting air around it. It's not just enlarged, guys, it's elongated. When he breaths out it flies up and rests on his tongue! Like a long ways! Wha??? And last night RIGHT when we got home from dinner, he gagged on it so much that yep. Puked a little. It doesn't otherwise hurt him but it annoys the heck out of him. It affects his whole day. Tell me, is this temporary? Please! All the info on the internet suggests this condition is associated with sleep apnea and morbid obesity, which Morg has neither of. Help us out here, guys. He wants cut it off. I just want to know if he'll die if he does. :)
