Voice changes can indeed be associated with lung cancer, particularly when tumors affect areas near the vocal cords or major blood vessels in the chest. It's always best to discuss any new or persistent voice changes with your healthcare team, as they can properly evaluate symptoms in the context of your specific situation and provide the most accurate guidance.

I lost my voice because one of the tumors attacked the nerve to the vocal cord, paralyzing it. It also caused problems with being able to eat solid food and having liquid go down the wrong tube. Had a vocal cord injection in October of 2024. Voice is still not 100% and may never be. But it is better than nothing, which I was near last year.
