Hi Leevee 11. I have been coughing for a couple of years. There's so many people here and everywhere with never ending coughs. I haven't heard anything from anyone that helps. It's very wearing and sometimes frightening when it's hard to catch your breath. If anyone comes up with anything that helps I would be eternally grateful.

[Patk1 in reply to Matrix]

That's such a shame whn you've sang in choirs.my voice is weak and changed a lot.i can't sing anymore,it sounds like I'm tone deaf as just one very flat tone npw x

[Matrix in reply to Patk1]

I know you must be sad , I am very devastated about my voice . Sometimes I dream it’s back and I could sing again as I did . 🤗🤗
