    Bulbar ALS questions and insight please?

    Thank you for your response affected. I did go to the doctor and had a barrium swallow study done with liquids and it came back fine. So I know that I keep doing this to myself but the symptoms are not just in my head unfortunately and if they are I wish I knew how to reverse it. I don't come...

    Bulbar ALS questions and insight please?

    So I'm still having problems swallowing. I keep on chewing and chewing and it's like my swallow reflex will not kick in but when I do finally swallow it goes down just fine and I don't choke on it. So I'm confused. Also, I have no issues swallowing liquids what so ever its just solid food...

    I agree. I think I'll go back to the doctor and ask about possible options for medication. So your honest good opinion, you don't believe this to be Bulbar Onset ALS since it's been 7 months and no changes? Sorry, I know I sound like a fool. /:

    Vicki, I feel as though it is always in the back of my head. If my swallowing issues would just stop that would be amazing and I could let go of the fear but since they have lingered I can't. I am always super focused on doing all kinds of tongue gymnastics, asking my friends and family if...

    Here again. Questions regarding bulbar ALS.

    Thank you so much Vicki. I mean yes, I'm worried but all the research I've concluded points away. Also, I've been told that my Barrium Swallow test wouldn't have been good if I had Bulbar Onset ALS and true difficulty swallowing. This whole Bulbar Onset ALS fear has really taken over my life...
