It was obvious a week or so ago that there was a bug lurking but I foolishly thought I could outrun or at least ignore it. Nope. Knocked me upside the head late last week and it's not your garden variety 24-hour bug.

Lozenges unavailable to treat spasmodic dysphonia
DEAR DR. GOTT: I have been diagnosed with spasmodic dysphonia, which is not on your list of health reports. I have to wait another five months for an appointment with an ENT specialist.

I've tried getting slippery elm lozenges, which are supposed to help the voice, but they are presently unavailable in Canada. So what can I do, short of not talking, to reduce or relieve symptoms?
