Dr. Jessica Daube recommended that I start taking allergy shots because I have a family history of terrible allergies. I am a professional singer and the allergies have caused me so much grief over the years trying to keep my throat clear so that I can sing. I can’t begin to tell you how thrilled I am with the results of the allergy shots! In In the 80s, my comfortable upper vocal range was around an F sharp. Last week, I noticed that I was singing higher than what is normally comfortable for my voice. So I got my guitar out and checked the key that I was singing in. I was hitting B flats without any problem at all! I am ecstatic! My range has increased almost 2 full steps, which is unheard of for a 68-year-old Singer! Normally, the older you get, the more your upper vocal range drops! Mine has increased, and my voice is fuller and richer than it has ever been in my entire Singing career! If you’re in doubt as to whether or not the allergy shots will help, just go ahead and do it! I am so glad I did! By the way, Shanda is AMAZING!!! Problem is, she seems like she really enjoys sticking me with a needle twice a week! Just kidding! I just tease her about that every week! Now I can’t wait to see if I can make it through the first week of hunting season without having bronchitis and coughing my head off while trying to sit in my tree stand! Fingers crossed!!!
