Ok, This may be a strange one for a topic - but becasue of all the talking, shouting, singing, drinking i have been doing lately - I am now loosing my voice and cannot sing at choir practice. Has anyone any good remedys for getting my singing voice back? (that doesn't include doctors or having to stay quiet?) cheers Jackie |

Hi Jackie, Can't give you any advice as I don't have a note in my head. I have heard gargling with salt water if its a sore throat and also eating honey are supposed to work. Teresa or Star being singers may have a solution for you. What kind of choir is it? |

Thanks for the tip will try anything at present. The choir is a mixed one doing a mixture of sacred and classical music for concerts and competitions. I probably did the voice damage roaring to 'dreamer' adn what not over christmas. so am off now to the health shop to see what else they can give cheers J |

Jackie I think you will have to rest up for a while - no point in doing more damage. Lots of honey and salt water gargle will help. T |

T did not know you were a sex therapist - same as me we should compare notes LOL Jackie, hope the voice improves - plenty of salt water rinses and honey and lemon and if you can get carrigeen (health food shop) boil handful up and add the liquid to honey and lemon. Works for my hubby who is always loosing his voice in the classroom. |

Jackie, the homeopathic remedy Argentum Nitricum is very good for loss of voice from over use.

Go to the Watermill with Kay, Lash down a few Black Bushes, a few Bacardi's followed by a few Rum & Blacks. Sure after that you will be feeling grand Jackie, no worries at all. he he he

Jackie, that was so funny, I didn't even notice it was so long ago!!!
I still reckon you should try Dayo's remedy (even if your voice is back) You may need a hangover remedy.................... |
