@JankovicJoseph @PDCMDC If you notice changes in speech or swallowing, don’t wait—talk to a Parkinson’s specialist. Early support can make a meaningful difference in quality of life.

[BCM Neurology @bcmneurology]

THREAD 🧵: Speech & swallowing changes are common in Parkinson’s, but simple daily strategies can help support clearer communication and safer eating.

@JankovicJoseph @PDCMDC Get support when needed: talk with your care team about changes. A speech-language pathologist can help improve strength, safety, and confidence.
