I have been struggling with my speech for about two years now. The speech therapist said I have dysarthria. I also have developed some nervous twitches in my mouth area. Anyone experiencing the same?. I have been in two or three sessions of speech therapy and have finally given up practicing at home because I couldn’t see it helping.

Good morning @judigirl1 . Having speech difficulties can be very upsetting and hard to deal with socially. Have you had an opportunity to talk with your doctors about your difficulties and nervous twitches? Could it be related to medications or your disease? Have you also noticed any muscle weakness in your head and face?
