In my case, slurred speech does not adequate describe my condition. For me the words stick in my throat; I cannot get them out. My dad used to say that someday I would "choke on my words." Dammed if he wasn't right.

I been on high doses of Preds for nearly 3 weeks and my speech is excellent, altogether if I talk to long it becomes a bit labored. I know I will probably lose some ground when reduced to maintenance levels, but any improvement is most welcomed.
