Unhappy

I called for an appt for a bronch today but I was told via our ent that he won't bronch Indie until he gets the swallow study results (which were inconclusive). why? There was some question about throat and tounge paralysis as well as vocal chords but you can't tell anything from a swallow study. As a matter of fact at the last bronch in Oct Indie's throat was lifting at a normal rate, and in July the throat was not lifting at all during swallow. I hate it when no one explains themselves, any ideas?

ps
Indie is trying to imitate growling through her trach, it is so cute
