Guest guest Posted April 24, 2000 Report Share Posted April 24, 2000 Hi Becky, I also have weak neck muscles, and have had for years. I can relate to what Rose said about doing sit-ups. My neck always gives out long before my stomach muscles do, and I must hold my neck with my hands too. I often feel like my head it too heavy for my neck and I sometimes rest my head on the table when i am tired. Re swallowing problems, I don't experience what you have Becky, but I have always had fear of swallowing pills because several times I,ve had them stuck in my throat. So for vitamins I either get chewable tablets(Vit. C and Calcium) or get easy to swallow capsules. For Vitamin E, I can't swallow those so I bite them open and swallow the oil in them. I also always carry water with me whenever I go out as well. I always thought maybe my throat opening was smaller than most, but maybe this is also CMT related. You have so much to contend with, yet you manage to keep your wonderful sense of humor, and look for something positive. You are an inspiration to me Becky. Keep up the good work.
