Can i ask what foods were the first to be difficult to swallow or was it fluids? We are not going down the PEG route&there is increased coughing,v rarely on fluids,worst in the evenings and it seems to be worst on foods that are sucked (eg chocolate etc). It is the elephant in the room as we all know it is happening. The thing is i guess i don't feel like anyone has the right to take another thing away from someone who is cognitively fine&understands the risks&also is losing weight. She has told us at each new loss when something was just too hard to do so i guess im hoping it will be the same with this. That said it is upsetting and worrying. i know this is bad so please don't tell me about aspiration,i do understand. i don't know what i am asking really.
