Recent visits to the Cardiologist found him to suggest my condition as benign and highly unlikely it will develop further.

It is important in such cases to reduce stress/anxiety levels and to reduce caffeine intake. Tremors of the hands can be physiological that is exacerbated by stress/anxiety and caffeine. Often these symptoms may reflect emotional/psychiatric problems related to stress (what is called somatization disorder).

Hi all. I'm a pretty healthy 27 year old. I'm also an actor, and i've never had a problem speaking to anyone or performing in front of thousands of people. Recently I was at work and realized that my words were stuttering and that it's difficult sometimes to speak as fluidly as I used too, and I feel like I sound different even though everyone tells me they're not noticing anything. I have had problems with anxiety in the past.

For 5 days now I have terrible pain in my jaw radiating to my ear(ear is fine teeth are fine)..I ve had it before but not for so long and not with it affecting my speech.

Mindfulness Meditation. (There are some apps which teach this. 'Headspace', (I forget the other one)) This will help strengthen certain areas of the brain, which leads to stress reduction (and other health benefits). A few minutes a day for 2 months should show some results. There's also mindfulness motion exercises: Qi-Gong, Tai-Chi, Yoga (Therapeutic yoga. Too many types of yogas.) There may be some meditation classes nearby. Or Buddhist places often have meditation classes.

There is a demands and capacities models that explains that the higher the demands are brought upon us (stress, emotions, work, time pressures) then the lower our capacities for fluent speech become. They are inversely related. Opposite. So when a very strong emotion like anger comes, your brain has high demand which means low capacity for fluent speech.

I had a bad night last night. First, I had to sit through a 5 hour meeting yesterday and developed what i think is sciatic nerve pain down my left buttock and leg. I've had this kind of pain before and don't think it's MS related. Then, last night, I was working on an important document on my computer and lost it. Needless to say, I was very upset. It was late, so I just called it a night.

Dear M, As you may know, we are volunteers here and not medical professionals. We do have considerable experience with Type 1 diabetes. It is possible that stress has had an impact on your son's speech and the stress may well have pre-dated his official diagnosis, where it may've been brought on by not feeling well, not being able to express what felt wrong, and/or detecting stress reactions in family members responding to his needs.

A number of techniques are available for achieving fluency which are prolonged speech techniques, airflow therapies, rhythmic speech, biofeedback methods, vocal control, masking, anxiety reduction, attitudinal therapy and trial therapy. Speech therapy involves learning new speech techniques (such as speaking syllable-by-syllable) and modifying the present ways of speaking (such as reducing the rate of speech).

It is important in such cases to reduce stress/anxiety levels and to reduce caffeine intake. Tremors of the hands can be physiological that is exacerbated by stress/anxiety and caffeine. Benign fasciculation syndrome, which I will abbreviate as BFS, is a condition in which there are involuntary twitches of various muscle groups, most commonly the legs but also the face, arms, eyes, and tongue.

He has been diagnosed with ADHD and has a few other problems like fine motor skills. About a year ago he started repeating his speech. Whatever he says, he repeats to himself under his breath. It's a constant behaviour pattern. It doesn't seem to be a problem but his friends have noticed it and comment on it. Anyone else have a similar experience ?

I am a Speech Language Pathologist. Speech Therapists often perform Voice therapy to help reduce the chance of long term effects, and help build better voice habits in your day to day life. We are usually referred by ENT's and Pulmonologist. I suggest you see an ENT, and ask if Voice therapy is an option for you. If you are diagnosed with GERD/LPR, we can also perform education to reduce that as well. Hope all is well.

Could my stroke-induced stuttering be permanent, since areas of my brain are 'dead' and simply 'rewired' due to speech rehab. ? I can usually control my fluency, but when I am worried or stressed. my speech block and stuttering is really terrible. I had the stroke 2 years ago. It is really agonising.

Hello and hope you are doing well. Understand your predicament. It's unlikely that alcohol can directly affect the vocal cords. However, ingestion of alcohol, can cause gastritis and further GERD, (Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease), where the acid contents of the stomach come up into the esophagus, this can irritate the throat and vocal cords. Please consult your primary care physician for further evaluation. In the meantime you can try some life style measures. Take frequent small meals.
