ive noticed he seems to get really tired quickly and is getting stressed very quickly over silly things.

Hello - I don't know about CBD, but difficulties swallowing and production of gooey phlegm are common problems with PSP. Does your husband have a GP who can refer you to a speech therapist for a barium swallow test? And has Chris had any opportunity for talking with a counselor about his illness? It helped my sweetheart a bit, although he was already losing his ability to speak. I wish I had gotten him there sooner.

Dad has CBD and coughs alot, mostly non productive. He occasionally gets some phlegm up. Nothing has really offered any relief from the coughing.

I know my husband gets tired quickly and sleeps a lot. He also gets upset quickly. And has trouble with coughing up mucus. He was diagnosed in August this year with CBD. although he had symptoms for 2 years now.

He seems to be progressing quickly. His speech is slower and he only walks with a walker now.

This is pretty new for us. Not fun.

Best wishes
