I'm 2 1/2 years out from treatment and still get hoarse at odd times during the day. Sometimes I know it is from talking too much and not drinking enough while I'm doing it! Still get asked why I have such a low voice when I get stuck answering the phone. It amazes me at times how nosey some people are...but it gives me a chance to bring up the benefits of early detection! Three weeks is a long time, though. For peace of mind you should get it checked out. - Kris
