Anyone have Laryngeal Sensory Neuropathy?

I have peripheral neuropathy and was hospitalised in 2022 due to being unable to walk as I could not feel my legs/feet at all.
One symptom that wasn’t connected at that time was an extremely hoarse voice. That went away whilst I was in hospital but as I was being treated with both vitamin IV (banana bag) and Pregabalin I am unsure which treated the hoarse voice.
It’s only through my own research that I found Laryngeal Sensory Neuropathy as a cause for my vanishing voice.
I still have numbness in my legs and feet but have not had a reoccurrence of the voice disappearing. I have been on Pregabalin and a multivitamin (Dolovent) since 2022.
I mention Pregabalin due to finding a study from the National Institute of Health (new members can’t post links) that suggests Pregabalin as a treatment for Laryngeal Sensory Neuropathy.
I’m not a doctor or any flavour healthcare expert. I just like to read up on things that might help me.

How is your neuropathy now? Are you managing the symptoms with treatments/therapies?
