My friend got such a disease - progressive bulbar paralysis recently, I
am not a doctor, what I know is only the name of the disease -
progressive bulbar paralysis, it seems serious. Now her tongue is
becoming rigid, hard to swallow foods and water.
The doctor here suggested some traditional Chinese medicine and
threrapies.

But I am afraid it takes effect much slower, does anybody here know
any medchine or therapy method I can get for that ?

Hope your help !!

I am sorry to hear that. It might be a very agressive form of
Amyotropic Lateral Sclerosis ALS. The Bulbar form is much quicker than
the other forms and not many primary treatments for the disease. I hope
I am wrong on that but that might be the name that we use here in the
states. The other name is Lou Gherigs disease after a famous baseball
player here that died of the disease.
