I had the surgery on the left side after having 70% blockage. It has been 7 weeks and I have been been progressively getting better, but my voice is not normal, and it feels like I have a lump in my throat. Our daughter in law's mother is a nurse, and she said many people are helped quickly with steroid treatments, which my doctor did not even suggest. I plan to check into this, and will update the results.View Thread
