    No you can not choke and die. The choking would wake you up so you could do something about the bleeding. You should get a humidifier for your bedroom. If the nose bleeds are not because of some medical issue, then the air in your bedroom may be too dry. See a doctor for the nose bleeds anyway if you have not done so already. 

    I've had a few of them recently due to thin membranes in my nose, no big deal apart from rescuing my pillows, but that's MY problem, better to visit your doc about yours.

    Blood blood everywhere,

    dripping from my nose.

    Why does this often happen,

    I don’t really seem to know.

    But it does relieve the pressure,

    Of the sinuses in the head.

    And makes the breathing easier,

    When your sleeping in your bed.

    So thank the Lord Almighty,

    For creating the nose bleed.

    And also give thanks to Kleenex,

    For the tissues that you need.

    LOL....Can't handle the music, eh! I could have used a pllow while listening, it almost put me to sleep!

    and if you sleep on your stomach that would insure that it would drain, if you bled, and you would not choke.  Why not go to Dr. and see why you bleed in the first place?

    Yep..should get it investigated..lots of causes for epistaxis(nose bleeds)...your G.P.will no doubt check your Blood Pressure....as high B/P can be a cause and needs treatment..better safe than sorry...or at least will give you peace of mind!

    Are you bleeding down you own throat? Are you swallowing? You could bleed to death. Get this checked out by a doctor......

    hope you don't.  get your blood pressure checked by your doctor.  exercise and eat well.
