I actually had a lengthy conversation with my dentist today, without any voice breaks or uncertainties! “Chatterbox!” she said when I ended up distracting her too much from her actual work, but it was worth the enormous pleasure of finally being able to speak without disruption again! Later in the day it regressed somewhat, as I’m already familiar with, but I estimate it won’t be much longer until my voice—with a slightly different tone—is fully back. What a relief!
technical note / amendment:
Daniel inspired me to do this (thanks to you!), making the updates on this topic and this blog in general more RSS-friendly – something I’d been planning to do for quite some time anyway. Therefore, updates are now separate posts that appear chronologically on the main page or can be found in the “Science → Medicine” category.
I always link to the main post that I have used for these updates so far at the end of the new posts on this topic.
