I have been suffering from a loss of vocal power and range for a while now. I finally got to see an ENT who looked at my vocal chords and said that they looked fine. He sent me to a speech therapist (who also happens to suffer from a paralyzed vocal chord) who diagnosed my problem as a vocal tremor. He set to doing some exercises designed to strengthen my diaphragm. It seems to be working, I have about 60-70% of my old voice back, and we hope that my voice will continue to improve over time.
