Those of you who downloaded or listened thank you. I wasn’t sure if I should do podcast because one of the effect of my disability is I have dysphonia. My voice has become very monotone too. Occasionally my voice disappears altogether nothing comes out when I speak. It varies greatly and I hope it didn’t make it harder for listeners.
“This disorder primarily affects the voice and not swallowing function. It is caused by abnormal firing of different muscles that move the vocal cords during speech. It gives patients either a strained or breathy voice, depending on which vocal cord muscles are dominantly affected, and may greatly affect the patient’s ability to communicate with others. Patients often report that their voice is worse when speaking on the telephone or when they are anxious or nervous and more normal when laughing or singing.”
