Jim, I wondering if your wife is having a problem swallowing. Perhaps it is time to ask your doctor to prescribe a swallowing evaluation to determine whether she is swallowing effectively. If that doesn't work, maybe an evaluation by an Ears, Nose and Throats doctor is in order. Please let us know how your wife does. ---------- God bless Mary Ann Ryan (CG Jamie 64/24) > My wife who has had PD for the last 12 years, has a problem with phlem at her throat. The poor woman can not sleep at nights as she tries to cough it out.. Is there any way, medicine or methods in which she can > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
