Voice loss after surgery. Anyone else?
I had surgery for both Trigeminal Neuralgia and Glossopharyngeal Neu ralgia 4 weeks ago. Since the surgery my voice has not returned to normal. It sounds better, though still hoarse, in the mornings, but gets worse as the day goes on. Also I have trouble swallowing food. If I am eating something, I cannot usually swallow it completely without drinking a liquid to help it go down. I can't help but be more than a little concerned about this. I don't know if it comes from the tube that was inserted when I was put under, or the fact that two nerves - especially the glossopharyngeal - was operated on. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this and for this amount of time. Any advice?
