I spit up this milky slimey thing?I need some help...
Okay so I had a weird taste in my mouth since yesterday, so I thought i had a a tonsil stone (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonsillolit... and I tried getting it out with my toothbrush. I guess I hit my gag reflex because it made me gag and I ended up spitting up this long slimey string. I was pulling on it and it wouldn't break and it kept coming out! It was clearish and milky in color, with a hint of red. It looked like a long piece of mucus. There are two things this could have came from:
1. I had my wisdom teeth out about a week and a half ago. I got my stiches taken out on Friday, and one side was infected and the oral surgeon had to drain out pus. I've been fine since though, my teeth haven't bothered me since he drained the infection.
2. I ate shrimp and clams for dinner last night and this 'taste' in my mouth tasted fishy.
I am very confused and I don't really know what is going on.... the taste is gone though.

sounds just like your stomach lining, my friend puked it up before.
your stomach is made out of mucus and when you puke it up it's long and white and it will have some red if there's blood in it.
definitely go see your doctor and describe what happened. He'd know what to do best and if it is actually your stomach lining.
