Hubby was diagnosed, after several tests, as having MND. They are still doing several other tests to rule out anything else causing his troubles, but he seems to be getting worse and weaker by the day. The other tests are not until March and still waiting for MRI scan appointment. After that it is a wait for the results. Meanwhile just left to get on with it. Feeling a little abandoned and have questions that may not be answered for a couple of months.
The biggest problem is the swallowing liquid down the wrong way and not being able to get a breath behind it to cough properly. It is sooooo scary when this happens - like drowning - and was wondering if there was anything to do that would help when this happens?
Any ideas would be most welcome.
