So, I’ve never posted to a forum before but, I’m hoping it will help me to better care for my PALS. This disease has so many symptoms and I’m trying to find some answers. It seems like just taking a pill will definitely not help. My PALS is very resistant to change. He is having a hard time accepting the machines and treatments necessary. Anyway, I need to have an idea of when I should start using the suction machine for him? He just leans over a trash can and spits right now. But he does it a lot! He has scopolamine patches and that helped some. I don’t want him to aspírate though. How can I tell if he’s getting all of the saliva out and not in distress?
