My Strange Voice Disease - Please Help... Posted: 06-04-07 15:52pm
After many years of pain, I decided to try
on the foreign forum. I have strange
problem with my voice and throat. I've
always
liked singing, but since a few years I
just can't. I have much phlegm in throat
(and deeper) and also in nose. Situation
is better
in the morning (after night much phlegm is
in the top of throat and is easy to get it
off) and one day after alcohol consumption
(for a few hours) and worst after drinking
citrus juices and milk. I've visited a lot
of medical centers and doctors - e.g.
laryngologists - in my country supposed me
to be a hypochondriac, because they found
nothing. I was truly amazed when found
person
with identical symptoms on the internet
forum. Here are my - our - symptoms in the
summary:
- much phlegm in throat (especially in the
morning);
- voice problems - not so serious in the
morning, worse from afternoon to the
evening. Symptoms: hoarseness, dullness,
higher
tone;
- the best betterment after antibiotics
therapy, but really short-term;
- good shape of voice one day after
alcohol consumption (no phlegm) for a few
hours;
- complete decline of falset;
- rheum almost 24h;
- discomfort while speaking, feeling of
pressure in larynx area;
- strange feeling while drinking cold
fuzzy drinks (hiccup-like);
- scratch feeling in throat with citrus
drinks;
- unpleasant smell from mouth (especially
in the morning, with the greatest amount
of phlegm in throat);
The voice quality is related with amount
of phlegm. Almost everything (except the
falset issue) is fine when there's no
phlegm in
the body (very rarely).
In addition, I have skin problems -
regular whelk or dryness, but I don't know
if it has any connection.
Does anybody have an idea what can it be?
How to beat that annoying phlegm? I have
tried so many methods and medicines.
Every help is appreciated.

It sounds like you have chronic allergies.
It went away when you drank alcohol
because it cuts the phlegm and cleans you
out. You can make a cough medicine
naturally with 1/3 whiskey, 1/3 lemon
juice, 1/3 honey mix and heat well. This
will clean all the mucous out.
It gets worse when you drink milk because
milk makes the mucous thicker. Just avoid
what makes it worse and use what makes it
better. Maybe get on some allergy meds
like zyrtec d.
