Ughh!! Bulbar onset ALS!! Why???

[melfish]

Good link. ANDddddddd.....yes......the bit about swallowing and the speech, mouth changes and so were the things I was referring to. My father has ALS and has done for 10 years, I watched him develop dyspahgia and there were subtle additional changes to 'water going down the wrong way'.

You used the word "subtle" twice. I thought ALS was anything BUT subtle. I am sorry your father has this awful disease.
