I finished 8 weeks of radiation and Cesplatin in mid October. I have BOT with tumors in the throat and left lymph node, stage 4. Nothing in the larynx itself. Towards the end of treatment my voice got a little raspy but within the last month or so it gets downright funky. I never know what's going to come out of my mouth. I can go from this sexy BarryWhite voice to a squeaky Tiny Tim cracking with a little bit of froggy from the little rascals thrown in.

I am thinking it's probably the radiation that may have changed my throat and vocal cords but I am also thinking it could be you know what.

Anybody else experience this?

Thanks

Hi Sarha,
My husband finished Head and Neck Cancer Treatment 8 Years ago and 2 years ago finished almost the same treatment for Small Cell Carcinoma in his Trachea (A Weird One for sure). His voice has gotten really horse and he sounds terrible. The ENT thinks he is using his False Vocal Cords and that he should see a Speech Therapist. My Husband doesn't want to peruse another Dr. There is always peace of mind after you see the ENT and He scopes the throat and says nothing to see here! Hope you get answers Stay Healthy!
