Nearly all my friends have it, and it's potentially career-ending if not treated. I had to give up an important singing job when I was in the throes of it--kept losing my voice.<BR/><BR/>There are several theories about this. Mine are 1) that the abdominal pressure associated with classical singing technique contributes, and 2) singers have such strange schedules that they find themselves eating at odd hours (like after concerts late at night) and not very intelligently.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12785796365378274088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-659197563728114440.post-14025671279076347952008-08-14T13:03:00.000-04:002008-08-14T13:03:00.000-04:00Golly, I have to take Prilosec for acid reflux. (...Golly, I have to take Prilosec for acid reflux. (looking at the final link in your post)<BR/><BR/>I don't have osteoporosis that I know of, but I'm wondering if using Prilosec increases your risk of it? The article doesn't address that. I certainly did just whack the heck out of my right hand, but on the other hand I fell on it pretty hard. Bones would have to be made of rubber to survive a fall like that intact.<BR/><BR/>Don't want a broken hip though!!! No way.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12785796365378274088noreply@blogger.com
