If nothing wrong can be found physically through endoscopy, X-ray, CT, MRI or swallow study, then it might be time to investigate the psychological.

Hello and hope you are doing well.
Was a tracheostomy or intubation done? This could cause persisting inflammation and problems with swallowing. What was the reason for coma, as brain disorders can cause problems with swallowing. Please discuss with your doctor, as prolonged difficulty with swallowing will cause dehydration and nutritional problems.
Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
