Re: Speaker at conference
Cliff, Cliff, Cliff, where were you hiding? We would love to have met you.
Re : Speaker at conference --- cliff Posted by Virginia ® , Aug 31,2001,21:28 Top of Thread Archive The condition that I think you are referring to is spasmodic dysphonia and there is a link below to a site which will give you information as well as examples of the sounds made by persons with this condition. I don't remember grunting sounds being one of those mentioned, but you can check it out on their site.

I would have loved to attend. So many questions to ask and it would have been nice to meet you folks in person. Since I'm going to lose my medical insurance the end of Sept. I decided that now would be a good time to have a cyst on my left foot removed. I thought that a local and about 16 minutes in a doctors office would do it. Boy, was I wrong. An hour in the hospital and put under was more like it. Also, I'm not to do extended walking and no climbing. But it had to be done and it will feel so much better when it heals. I'm going to try to get on line more often now. Thanks, Cliff

Re : Speaker at conference --- cliff Posted by Moderator-JB ® , Sep 01,2001,06:07 Top of Thread Archive The grunting sound is fairly common. I did it in the past and still do on occassion. Now I will wake up in the night making a kind of hissing/k-type sound (I also have Oromandibular Dystonia that affects the jaw/lower face area.
Please e-mail me if I can perhaps answer some of your questions.

Hi friends,
Re : Strange sounds ... --- Moderator-JB Posted by hilltops ® , Sep 01,2001,11:02 Top of Thread Archive Mine does that...way too often, I'm afraid. When the diaphraghm goes into spasm it pushes the air over your voice box, making these unusual sounds. Also, my words are repeated, or switched backwards, or any combination..."steak" when I want to say "cake". Happens to a lot of folks...
Hope this helps,
Blessings,
