Hi Pam. I've had to do Toby three times over a two year period. I lost my voice about a week into the treatment each time. My pulmonary doc said to use warm salt water gargle. It worked pretty well except the last time. Voice took weeks to return following treatment.
It is odd situation but not the worse thing--like not being able to treat Pseudomonas. I'm not sure mine is cured but suppressing it is not all bad. Sometimes just getting a "break" from the symptoms associated with this nasty bacteria is a good thing. God Bless. Faye

Faye - this is so helpful - thank you! You are right; losing one's voice is not the worst thing in the world and to know the Toby will beat this bacteria back is what counts. Misery loves company so I thank you and Sue for making me feel not quite so alone in this process! Best, Pam
