This is such a good place to come and vent:) I'm one year out of treatment and my voice gets hoarse. The doc said could be from the treatment, loss of saliva, and also I still have thick mucous at times. What I'm trying to say, is try to keep calm and don't think the worst. I know, it's easy for me to say, but so hard to do. Hoping all is clear with his scans, let us know what's going on. Take care. Linda
