@lizzyj58 No, interestingly enough, I did not meet with a speech therapist or swallow doctor before starting treatments.

@ewilde My husband had the tonsil with the tumor removed but cancer spread to adjacent lymph nodes. He's starting chemo radiation next week. Dr wants him to see someone about speech and swallowing. Maybe it's because he's going in to a clinical trial? He goes to msk.

@ewilde I just looked up what husband was supposed to have. Ita type of barium x ray where you are given different types of foods to see if he has difficulty swallowing anything. He doesn't want to have this as it's in NY and we're in NJ.
