Has anybody had a barium swallow test and speech test? My doctor ordered one for me today. I have had trouble losing my voice and having a feeling like something is stuck in my throat. I read on the internet that people who have trouble talking and swallowing are the ones that have trouble breathing. Is this a true statement you think? I get hoarse if I talk more than a few minutes? Have any of you experience this then started having trouble swallowing as a symptom after having hoarseness of their voice?
