A member asked:
At first i thought it was the botox that caused difficulty swallowing but my doctor did a thyroid blood test and says it's hyperthyroid. ?

Ok: Hyperthyroid can be treated in different ways and hopefully once taken care of, your swallowing issues will improve. Follow-up with your Doctor to get the thyroid treated. Best wishes.

And your point is?: Hi. Not until you eliminate a variable can you rule it out as a cause. Why are you taking Botox, and is it being injected in an area that could affect swallowing? Hyperthyroidism may affect swallowing, but so may many other things. What is your question?
