FYI..every time my voice got "shabby" the thing that helped me the most was not using it. It sucks that you have to work through this but if you don't rest that voice, it might get bad. Please talk to your Dr's. See what can be done about work. Use the weekends (or any other time you can ) to not use your voice at all. Let me know. Will.
