Members widely confirmed experiencing voice loss and throat discomfort alongside fibromyalgia, describing symptoms like hoarseness, frequent throat clearing, and a twisting sensation that comes and goes unpredictably. Several members shared practical advice including checking medications for side effects, getting thyroid function tested (as one member's goiter affected their voice and required thyroid removal), and considering muscle relaxants like Flexeril for throat spasms that can make swallowing difficult. A recurring theme was the frustration of discovering yet another unexpected symptom of fibromyalgia, with many expressing surprise that voice problems could be connected to the condition and emphasizing the importance of medical evaluation to rule out other causes.
