Hmm

So, last night I went to an Oscar night screening, and bumped into a woman I know on the way home so we rode the subway together. And I realised I was losing my voice! No other symptoms of illness or a cold or something, just losing my voice. I was coughing more than usual when I went to bed as well, and wrote it off to March thaw allergies (when the snow goes, the mouldy old leaves are revealed). 

This morning it’s really bothering me, so I thought I’d look up the side-effects of my new medication. It lists “speech or language problems” under more common, “sore throat” under less common. Hmm. Also have some nausea, which is another possible side effect, but also a thing I’ve been dealing with along with my headaches and balance issues, so maybe that’s just me.

I only have a week’s worth of these, and a follow-up appointment on Friday, so I guess will see how things go until then.
