Dysarthria What you Need to Know

Some of the causes of dysarthria, although I meant to do another inclduing medications and never got around to it, the list was too long. Also cervical dystonia can cause it as well which I have but came later. I first got dysarthia from brain/cns damage from prescribed medications and was damaged repeatedly often I can't speak at all, it goes on/off and was never given any therapy for it, nor the rest of the extensive damage. Research your medications under http://rxlist.com they are one of the best for adverse side effects most others don't tell you about,

Thank you for sharing your experience with me, Cheryl. I am a first year speech pathology student at Cleveland State University. I do hope that you get a more thorough explanation of your dysarthria from you speech therapist.

Again, thank you -- this really helps with my education.

You describe your condition very well -- this helps greatly.

@lolopet1 I have no speech therapist or to date any medical care for extesnive damage done and dystonia. I also have cervical dystonia that affects my speech, although the brain damage from Jan/03 did it first. Cleveland, would love to be hosptialized at the Cleveland Clinic for as much as possible for extensive diagnositics and medical care, I have severe ME/CFS 20 years, and repeatedly brain & body damage & the dystonia. Glad this can help people. Namaste

Although i didn't have the opportunity to watch your whole video, due to uploading difficulties, i just wanted you to know your disorder is pronounced Dis-Ar-Three-Uh. It seems as if you've found most of this information out by yourself. Have you had any additional assistance (SLP) since uploading this video? Did you ever have a chance to go to the Cleveland clinic? Good for you for trying to be an informed person. It seems as if you've been through a lot. Wish u the best in life.
