Do you mind me asking if the muscle sets that are affected now are all the same ones that were affected 17 years ago?....
Are there any muscles that were affected all those years ago but do not present with fatigability this time round?

I have a lot of tips about swallowing from another forum - let me know if you would like me to forward them to you.
