Paralysed vocal cord, not great, but it is what it is! I'm used to it now, so are my friends and family. And my gf has only ever known me with a hoarse voice, it doesn't bother her. My only gripe is that I can't shout at idiots in work anymore!

Thats a bummer token sorry to hear that. What caused it

Nothing as far as i know, the Dr originally thought i had laryngitis until it didn't get any better, that's when he sent me to hospital to get checked out. Speech therapy helped very slightly, but that was all. I'm ok with it, and i'm told my whisper is very sexy. Or was it creepy? No, fuck it, i'm going with sexy

Ha ha. Actually that smoky voiced thing is sexy IMO so go with that.

Anyone got any obscure medical condition that no one's heard of and think you're slacking when you're having an episode.

I have a vestibular disorder, causes imbalance, fatigue and poor concentration. Getting a cold can send me off whack for a month or more but with no outward symptoms people think I'm swinging the lead.

Best way to describe it is having too much to drink at lunchtime, after the nice parts worn off and you're stuck at work feeling like shit.

Appears to be getting worse now and seem to have more bad days than good.

Looking at those symptoms I’ve also had vertigo, nothing to do with heights, more to do with extreme stress so I really sympathise if you get that dizziness with it. Tinnitus has been on and off most of my life, nothing too serious there though, just the occasional ringing like radio waves passing through or a low hum. Haven’t had that for a few years though.

Have you looked into natural remedies? A healthy diet is crucial. We are what we eat/drink.

At one point it was so debilitating that I would have drunk goats piss if it would have helped. Since being diagnosed with it I take betahistine and fins paracetamol to work well on the dYs the other tablet isn't work so good. Got tinnitiss also constant. These days it's stress or illness that trigger it the most. Kept a track on my diet d nt seem to make much difference.

Always open to any natural remedies though

My husband has Ménière's disease, sounds like what you have. I notice it is worse when he is stressed, not eaten enough or in a hot climate. He takes Betahistine . Scares me when he has a bad one as he looks quite vacant and disorientated and has put me off traveling alone with him... on top of prostate cancer.

Oh sorry to hear that Bella. Meneires is a bastard. I was terrified that's what it was before being diagnosed as vestibular. Ii have a friend with it and she has been bed bound for days with it.

It's not that bad , a couple of hours at the most and he gets a warning when it coming on.

I want a cupa tea sugar loving bacteria in the gut multiply producing an enzyme that floods the blood stream the primary cause of muscle tension and dry skin. As well as I am substituting sugar for a meal. Associated smoking with tea as well. Stop buying cigs back on tea for a short time.

If you're giving up the cigs don't push yourself too far on giving up other stuff too. One battle at a time. best of luck Art.

All the symptoms sound mold related. Have you used warm almond oil to clean the pipe that lead into the throat.
