Hi, @rwinney - unfortunately, we can only move a whole thread at this time to move it over and combine it with another thread. We don't have the capability of moving just a few posts in a thread. Please let me know if I've understood what you are asking correctly.

Ok. Yes you've understood. I suppose I can post a message under the "swallowing" thread to refer to the "Aching leg" thread for additional discussion. Haha...no biggie. I'm probably over thinking it!

Yes, you could certainly mention in the aching leg thread that you've started a new discussion on a topic that came up there on swallowing and neuropathy and give the link, @rwinney.

@birdierobin - that sounds difficult that you can't talk right and swallowing is hard. Do you have neuropathy that is linked to this somehow, or just the paralyzed vocal cord?

@jimhd @arlinebringhurst @johnbishop @jaygats @2011panc @jcbonne1 @jenniferhunter may have some thoughts on the impact of neuropathy on swallowing or any personal experiences they have had with this symptom.

How has neuropathy impacted your swallowing, @rwinney?

Rwhinny- Somehow some of these MAYO connect messages has ended up in my junk box I just found them and I just found this message sorry it’s taking me so long I did not know this was a problem I don’t know why they’re going there. I don’t know yet what’s causing my problems the neuropathy doesn’t seem to be causing this. I’m to new to have good answers

Hi ya! A conversation about neuropathy and swallowing began under the thread Aching Legs and Neuropathy. After the convo kicked off I then began a new thread How Neuropathy has Impacted Swallowing. Unfortunately they can not be consolidated. Sorry.
