I have never had a raspy throat since I've been diagnosed. I have a dry cough each day with a mild amount of phlem. I sometimes get
a raspy throat prior to a head cold. Wishing you better health.

Maybe I'm coming down with a head cold...I had a lot of raspiness last year...........so much I do not know about this illness.....
thanks for your response

try to avoid cold as much as is possible. If you do catch a cold please make sure to contact your doctor soon. with my experience every cold had brought decline with my dad.
it also brought many lung infections.

Thank you Nazy... I appreciate all the advice I get. I do understand that things like colds and flu are NOT helpful!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you again

Yes, I oftern get a raspy throat, it seems for no reason at all that I can see. I will ask the specialist about it when I next see him - never thought about asking before. Although I am doing quite well on the prednisone and Plaquenil I've had several bouts of a "chest infection" recently. My doctor thinks that he will ask the specialist what to do about my medication. I hope that all of you have an improvement in health pretty soon, my best wishes.

Thank you Deaks....at least its not just me getting raspy throat. If you get any information from your specialist will you please mention it on here?
Thank you and the very best wishes for you and for all.

Yes, raspiness does occur in my case. I seem
to have it more in the evening and especially after I talk a lot.

I seem to be raspy when I get up in themorming and it stays that way...not every day,....just some days.
