Since yesterday everything seemed fine, but now it looks as though I'm losing my voice! Could this be from the tube they put in your throat? It's so weird!

I'm having the same problem ! I haven't loss my voice all together but I sound horses ! I think it's from the tube

glad im not alone! lol

Yes...it is an endotracheal tube that is inserted through your vocal cords using a laryngoscope and a balloon is inflated....cough lozenges usually soothe it if there is irritation.

Very Normal......should only last a day, maybe 2

I've had the same issue (along with a sore, scratchy throat) since I had my procedure, and it's most definitely from the ET tube as B-52 said. I'm an RN in a cardiac ICU and many of our patients are intubated at some point, some of them long term. Once we finally get them off they ventilator and extubated, they often can't talk normally for several days. Throat lozenges like Cepacol are good, as well as those OTC throat sprays like Chloraseptic, which help numb your throat. Hope this helps!

What b-52 said. Just take something for the soreness and you should be fine in a day or two!

I just wanted to know if it was normal lol Glad that is that! Today my voice is much better!
