Thanks Dr. Ray re: stridor

[Guest guest]

Thanks for the information and suggestion. As I read your answer I

thought about the Stridor right before Jerry ended up in respiratory

failure. It kept getting louder and louder. We were lucky that

Jerry didn't die. Next time it gets even a little louder I will get

him right to the doctor. Although he makes a considerable amount of

noise now he was just at the pulmonologist and the neurologist. To

be honest, I don't think they know much about MSA but what else is

new. The pulmonologist " supposed " that some of the problems were

because of the disease, but he admitted he doesn't know much about

(read: nothing about)MSA. We are heading to our PCP soon and he has

taken the time to read up on MSA and maybe he will be a better person

to check on this.

Again, thanks to both Dr. Ray and Pam for all the research info.
