I would suggest that you see a gastroenterologist(digestive health)or even an otolarygologist(Ear nose and throat doctor) I have known people with this issue. Often it is caused by esophageal stenosis or a tightening in the swallowing tube. They typically would stretch this out so that you wouldn't have the gagging issue. Sometimes this seems to occur more after laughing a great deal and often these people find they must clear their throats constantly as the swallowing of even simple saliva can cause issues. It certainly couldn't hurt to have it checked out.
