I found this page by googling, I am so glad I did. Do you have an update??

I deal with this everytime I get sick.. currently I'm on week 3 of no voice. Last time this happened was 3 years ago and I went 5 months with a hoarse voice. I have googled soooooo many times about the sticky scab like phlem that I cough up and haven't been able to find anyone that has experienced that aswell. I find when I cough up the "scab stuff" my voice comes back a bit but still hoarse. I work as a bartender so I'm always having to talk, it's extremely frustrating. I just don't know what to do anymore
