So my mother is having difficulty swallowing. She was referred to speech therapist a good while ago but they wrote back to GP yesterday looking for more information.GP was annoyed as she wouldn't refer if it wasn't necessary and that they could have spoken to us at the appointment about her eating habits.
The consultant said don't give water, or things at room temperature-hot or cold, give things like mashed potatoes, eggs,yoghurt. He said remove things like toast, biscuits.
GP said remove ice cream, yoghurt fine
She coughs after certain foods and tea. Trying to work out and remove as necessary.
Any tips or rcipes that you find have helped?
