Another referral due to my MS!
Its crazy how much of ‘you’ MS affects!
My voice hasn’t sounded the same for around 4 years!
Nothing major, I just constantly sound as though I have a cold!
The most annoying thing now is the amount of times I get asked to repeat myself!
I can’t tell what volume I should be using so can occasionally speak very loud!
The worst is when my voice becomes a whisper and I slurr my words!
All because MS has affected my swallow!
When I used to get asked if my swallow was okay at routine check ups, I always thought the consultant meant ‘do I choke often’
Answer: “occasionally”
I never linked the question to the problems I have with my voice! And yet it makes total sense!
Doh!!! 👅😝
