Voice problems
I finished 4 cycles of chemo on the 16th feb. Started radiotherapy a month ago and after one week noticed my voice was sounding a bit fried. I'm a singer and its the kind of sound Britney Spears make...

@ Blondy - My voice changed during AC chemo almost overnight. I lost all my reflexes and coughing, sneezing and giggling were all quite difficult. I'm totally tone deaf so never try to sing but found that I could only talk at a whisper. Several people said I 'sounded' different. I finished chemo in November last year and my voice seems back to the 'new normal' that I'm becoming accustomed to for everything.
I was told that my throat would be damaged during radiation cause it was in the way but I feel no difference after the radiation which left me with 3rd degree burns but no throat damage.
I would blame the chemo for your voice.
Just another little side effect that oncologists are always surprised to hear of.
