Dysphagia and Multiple Sclerosis

As some regular readers know I have been working in the field of healthcare for over a decade now. The main area I’ve worked in was that of survey research with people with various different medical conditions. One of which was multiple sclerosis which became a key part of my work.

One area we looked at was the impact of different specific symptoms on the lifestyles of our respondents and now readers. You may find this discussion blog post of swallowing difficulties of interest. In fact around 40% of people with multiple sclerosis will suffer from dysphagia or difficulty swallowing.

Anyhow this month is National Dysphagia Awareness Month and its organisers The National Foundation of Swallowing Disorders are running a survey on how best to honour the month. So I thought the best contribution our end would be to provide a link so you can take part in the research. So here it is.

Many thanks in advance.
