My pcp sent me for a barium swallow study. I thought i would be having the modified swallow study with a speech therapist, but my pcp said that was only for stroke patients, etc.... I didn't agree with her on that, but she was adamant. I saw a speech therapist years ago when this started, and feel I need to see one again. I would need a referral, but again my dr sounded firm on this!
