Question about slurred speech

[Scotsman]

Good evening

Sorry to bother anyone but due to COVID my waiting time to speak to my GP is now 3 weeks was hoping for a bit of advice with regards to slurred speech.

I understand slurred speech is the most common symptom of Bulbar Onset however in the early stages is the slurred speech obvious to others or could it be missed. Reasoning is I feel like I am slurring words here and there but my friends and family have advised I sound normal. Could you advise if I had slurred speech would it be obvious to others ?

Finally , I have posted before and I am now involved on health anxiety forums that were kindly recommended by a member on the site.

Again I can't thank you enough for your time and advice
