Vocal Disorder, Vocal Issues, Voice Problems

I've been experiencing a vocal disorder for going on 2 yrs that has been progressively getting worse. I first noticed a slight issue back in 2004. My vocal folds have been scoped at least 3 times and they look perfect. My family doctor even ordered an MRI to take a closer look at the soft tissue, nothing was found. Visited Vanderbilt Voice Center in Nashville and there I started doing voice therapy, but if anything my problems have continued to worsen. As I state on the video, I did have an injury to my neck, more specifically the top 2 vertebrae. The brain stem was seriously compressed over time. I've been seeing a specialist in chiropractic care and that issue has greatly improved, however, in the process my voice problems have surfaced.

Hey! I´m experiencing some problems with the voice myself, although they don´t seem to be as extreme as yours....But anyhow, that means I know just how much the voice affects your everyday mood and shape, so I really hope you can solve this in some way. Since the issue only occurs when singing (cause your speaking voice sounds fine), have you considered approaching some type of singing vocal coach who has experience with injured/disfunctional voices?

@djeikop I did vocal therapy for over a year with little to no improvement. Recently have been rescoped and something abnormal (in my opinion) showed up during the videoscope. I've requested a copy of the video and will post it at some point soon.

I have a very similar voice condition . I have also been to 4 doctors at Vanderbilt

voice center , therapy , every kind of sore throat remedy . I can't figure it out either

you would think instead of these doctors just giving up and telling me they can't figure it out . that they would want to figure out the mystery of what happened .

Call me anytime (865) 640 -4687 I would love to Talk to you about this matter further I'm sure you might have questions Thank you very much ! Dwayne Lowe
