Aspirated a macoroni noodle?
About two hours ago I was eating macoroni and cheese and coughed as I was taking a bite and inhaled a noodle. I've been coughing and clearing my thoat ever since. I went to the emergency room and since I wasn't choking and I can breathe and swallow just fine they sent me home and told me it should clear up in 24 hours. If it doesn't I might have a minor lung infection from it. My throat is all dry and scratchy now from coughing and I can't stop clearing my throat. I'm afraid that I will cough the noodle up in my sleep and choke on it. So is the noodle still stuck or does it just feel that way because my throat is all dry and scratchy? I'm a little freaked out. My dad passed away from aspiration three months ago. :/

The sensory nerves in the lungs and bronchi may not be capable of discriminating between a food particle and irritation caused by coughing, so you can't know for certain if you have coughed up the food or not.
I think the best you can do is to make sure you are not left alone while sleeping tonight, have your companion review the procedures for the Heimlich maneuver, and do not sleep on your back,
