Smile Yeah good Swallow person

My family doc gave me a choice between 2 swallow tests..an esophagram or a videopharyngogram. I got into worry given the situation (how the eye test was messed up) that the right one get done. I finally had the idea this morn to call the local speech therapist. After my first swallow test 2 years ago I did have an appointment but then was rushed off to Mayo cause of test results and never got there.

I was able to talk to the speech supervisor by phone luckily and she was SUPER!! I told her I didnt think I was relating well what was going on could she help me. She ended up offering to have her best person monitor the test as this was likely on the unique side. She had asked me some specific questions to help qualify things and they helped. Yeah a good stroke of luck.
