John.... I found out that my breathing was helped by collagen injections into my vocal cords by ACCIDENT. Neither my neuro. nor neurosurgeon, nor GP OR the neck and throat surgeon who did the injection was aware that I got that extra benefit of ease of breathing from a treatment which had been done to help restore close-to-pre-Parkinson's speech volume. The speech benefits injections lasted this time for only a few days, but as I said, the breathing was helped with EVERY pair of injection, so I DO plan on continuing to have the collagen.
