I appreciate all the kind messages. You have no idea how much it means. I know to many I seem like I have it together all the time but I’m only human. Losing my voice for a month+ has really worn me down.

Mine said it could be that too (redness), but I didn't have the rest of the symptoms, so I was confused and looked to an SLP (not always the same as speech therapist). People who study airways, the larynx, the voice, the whole shebang rather than just speech. I had issues for 9..
months, intense pain swallowing, difficulty breathing, it was an absolute nightmare. And 1-2 months of straw exercises, proper breathing, occasional warmups, and talking strongly knowing nothing was actually broken inside me did that whole decent-speed recovery thing :)

So absolutely look into that ASAP if your acid reflux treatment doesn't help and your ENT has no better ideas - I have a whole pack of unused acid reflux pills because I doubted that diagnosis.

Yeah actually once the doc mentioned it, I realized I had been having issues with acid reflux lately. I'm doing vocal warmups before each stream now. No pain thankfully just difficult to project. Thank you so much for the advice and sharing your story
