How do I get my voice back?

If you were listening this morning, you probably noticed that I've pretty much lost my voice! My hubby & Tommy are thrilled because I'm trying to rest my voice, and not talk as much...haha...but, I do need it to come back, pronto! After the show today, it really hurt! Any home-remedies that you can suggest? I tried drinking some hot-chocolate this morning, but it didn't help! John keeps telling me to go to the doctor, but, I don't feel sick, it's just my voice! Late last week, I felt like I may be getting a cold, but it never amounted to anything, and I just lost my voice! Good home-remedies are usually better than anything a doc can give you, right?


Help!!!!

  1. Try drinking hot tea with lemon and/or honey and avoid dairy products. I used to sing in my high school's choir (about a million years ago) and I lost my voice before so many concerts! Hot tea with lemon/honey was always the advice my teacher gave me and she always said to avoid dairy before concerts because dairy can cause you to produce more phlegm (gross, but true). Also, drink luke warm water as opposed to ice cold. Hope that helps!

  2. Well I'm sorry I don't have any ideas for you...but I have the exact same thing this week! I went to a bachelorette party Saturday night & haven't been able to speak since! I feel fine, but I don't think it was just the partying...I guess we have Laryngitis. Doesn't seem like we can do much, just drink lots of tea & honey & rest our voice. Just thought it was funny because I'm going through the same thing. Today, at least there are sounds coming out, but I sound like a man!! Hope it comes back soon!!
