Thank you and thank you again. My goodness. So glad that more people are seeing this as an option! So much better than CTA or really any other voice surgery.
My voice is getting really a lot stronger, and the roughness when speaking at regular volumes is almost completely gone. It is super gone at the lower volumes.
I'm also noticing my range starting to increase during regular speech. I'm really starting to register that this is my voice. I'm no longer having dreams where I still have a low voice

My range still has a ways to go (and I hope it goes a LOT) because I still haven't been able to make a squeak higher than I could before the surgery which was a C5 on the scale. I can still only squeak (and I have to do it gently, too) up to a Bb4. It's only two semitones lower, but I really hope to be able to make those super high pitched squeak noises if I want

It may be wishful thinking though. Only time will tell.
I also wonder what singing range I will have, because right now I feel as though my chest voice switches to a falsetto type of sound at about the same point- even though the falsetto sounds way less like falsetto now. I'm not even trying to sing though, more like saying a single short word at specific pitches to see how it feels.
