Yes, and soreness right side throat. It comes out when my mental health is suffering, when I’m starting to get upset and then my right nostril clogs. There is lymph drainage right there. If I make it to angry, it throws out two chunks. Lol certainly reaction to external stimuli to invader- persons thwarting best interests

Good day! I have hoarseness for almost 8months now, as time goes by it's getting worst. I'm a college student and it's very difficult to interact w/ the class. often I just isolate myself from others, since i can't make a good conversation with them due to my voice. :(( i have visited an ENT doctor he has no clear findings, but just gave a medicine prescription instead, but still it doesn't work. Do you have suggestion about this problem? :'(

I sure would not keep from my friends because of a soft or hoarse voice college student or not. Where are we without friends? They will understand, give them a break!

Thanks for all your comments, forgot all about this post, but still have hoarseness. I love this site, now i know i am not alone and it is somewhat comforting. I asked my endo and she said she had no clue why i was hoarse!!!! i knew hoarseness came with hypo, but was  not sure about the hyper. Thanks all.

this is the first time I visited this site. I thought I might find others experiencing the same issues.  If it medication to relax the throat so I can breathe then bring on the wine that will relax me and I will breathe just fine!!!  ;-)

I also have hoarseness on a regular basis. It's so annoying! I sound like I have a cold or my voice is not its normal deep tone. Sometimes my voice sounds as though I'm speaking in a soft or a weak tone because the strength and natural resonance of my real voice is being compromised.

I've only had this hoarseness for a couple of weeks. If this is the only way for me then I am going to quit.

I have had hoarseness for almost a year.  I had RAI treatment December 08, had hot nodules.  ENT checked vocal cords they turned out fine and no scar tissue.  Hurts when I talk, left side constantly in pain radiating from bottom of throat to left ear.  All docs I have been to say everything is coming back normal.  However, the ENT sent me to speech therapy.  Just finished a 12 week round of vitalstem treatment, which is included with the speech. If it is normal then why so much pain and hoarseness?  I havne't gotten any real answers.

www.vitalstim.com website and read up on the stimulation therapy.  It might help.
I'm at 11 months and counting.  If you have any questions, just ask away. I will answer what I can.

I have been told that some people loses their voice/hoarseness for years and its a part of having thyroid issues.

Take care

I'm sure there are those who would LIKE ME TO LOSE MY VOICE!!! You take care. it's one thing not to breathe so good but to loose my voice that would be terrible.

Horseness is a common symptom of thyroid problems.

I do have hoarseness, I've had it for about 6 mon.  I've been to ENT and had vocal cord check...came back ok.  My thyroid comes back ok too, although I have a mass on left thyroid...they say to watch.  I am concerned with my voice and pain when talking.  Forget abut singing...well I understand how you feel.  This is frustrating....if you find out amything let me know!  helpless880

I've just recently been sent to a pulmonologist who had prescribed Brie that cause a terrible hoarseness to my voice. Then he switched my to Symbicort  and it is doing the same thing. I rinse well and don't have any soreness just this awful voice. Since both are so new to me I'm not sure I want to continue. I have not noticed any change in breathing. I rinse really well & so far no trush or soreness. Just Puzz;led at the sound. Glad I am not a singer. I have some thyroid issues and taking medicine for that for years but that is for under active thyroid.
