When I was told I had acid reflux I noticed that I didn't have any of the symptoms. Such as : voice is worse in mornings or after laying down, sour taste in mouth and burning sensation in chest. Did anyone else go through this???

I have the same problem. I didn't believe my doctor when he started treating me for acid reflux. I sometimes wake up with a burning sore throat and before Botox my voice was worse in the mornings. I didn't think anything about it. Everytime, I go for a check up of my vocal cords he either notes if my throat is red or not.

Hi, My name is Bonnie Lynn I was a Telephone operator for 6 years when I started losing my voice,Back then people just thought I was Stupid . SD was not well known at that time I have now been diagnosed with the disorder after 20 years. In June 2004 I Almost died with a tear in my esphosgus, My stomach was pumped where I almost bled to death and put in ICU at Piedmont Hospitial They say I have a Acid Relex Disorder That caused the internal bleeding. I had a burning sore throat , and a sour stomach feeling I have not yet done Botox yet.Like I said I am just now diagnoased after 20 years.My voice is very bad in the mornings and I can not talk on a phone.I feel very alone .My family does not understand. They do not understand how one day I can talk and the next day I can't.I feel all alone in this

Bonnie Lynn,
SO glad that you have found this website. I,also, have had mild SD for a long time, although the last three to four years it has gotten worse. I know what you mean about people thinking that you are stupid. They just think that it's stupid that you can't do something basic like talk. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. There are many people on this BB who understand alot of what you are going through. Where do you live? Is there a support group in your area? You might want to check it out. Good Luck and welcome to the spasmodic dysphonia bulletin board...
