Hi Linda,
Sorry to hear that you're having loads of trouble!! I'm interested in this acid thing, 'coz I've never ever come across it, apart from this list!! Maybe I'm lucky!!!
I will say one thing tho'. Breath management will have little to do with a hernia. By God, you will always be aware of it, of course. But the reason for bad breath management is larynygeal. No more, no less. That's what I think you need to re-address. If the cords are blown apart with loads of gas, you'll have no air to do what you need to do. And if you can't sing quietly, then you just shouldn't!! It's a hard one that, but it's the truth! I think it was Melba who said, "If you can't sing your highest notes pianissimo, then you shouldn't sing them at all!" I'd be dead interested to know what you perceive to produce a tone.
Anyway, I digress!! The real reason for this post was to ask a lister how the acid thing feels. . .
I look forward to hearing about it.
Ian Voice wrecker to the stars!
