Hi Mr Mike,
I'm sorry to hear about your difficulty in swallowing. Eric has managed to swallow each day since diagnosis, even if it's been just a mouthful of water. He's using his PEG 100% for nourishment but he had a mighty craving for cashews that wouldn't go away. He managed to chew up and eat a few but a piece got caught in a mouth sore and caused some discomfort so he hasn't tried anything but apple juice since. His nausea is still fairly significant. He is doing some of the exercises, like stretching his mouth open in hopes of preventing his jaw from locking up. I hope you see some improvement soon. Good luck! - k
