They have visualized my vocal cords on many occassions and state that there is no damage....My ENT has told me on more than one occassion to stay hydrated and stay mute and your voice will return. I'm old and if I drank the amount of water she has stated, I would have to be catherized.... I am too fond of the sound of my voice to stay mute..
