    There are times when I have problems speaking out loud,so I have to whisper. This happens when I have a coughing fit. I have to assume I don’t have enough air in my lungs to exhale when speaking.
    Has anyone else experinced this?

    My voice seems to be changing,although this may be an unrelated issue.

    Thanks,,
