Sorry to hear of your husbands lasting side effects from tx. Does your husband have any issues with how far he can open his mouth? What about his teeth, are they in good shape?
I recently had a set back myself so understand how foods seems to stop and not go down. Ive heard good things about the dialation, quick and not that painful, works very well. Hoping somebody who has doen it will post more info. I seem to be headed down that road too.
