Anyone completely lost their voice?

As in, completely, not a whisper? Day 7 of this, day 10 of symptoms. It's like my vocal chords have forgotten how to move!
I can see loads online about "covid voice" and hoarseness, but nothing about people basically rendered mute!

I have this! Would love to know how long it lasted for you @penguindreamsofDraco?

I'm day 7 of an intense sore throat and I've had no voice whatsoever for the past 2 days. This is the worst virus I've had for years. Seems worse at night, swallowing very painful, jaw and ear ache, red runny eyes. No runny nose though. Called doctor the other day and he just said it's a virus and will go away, but it's day 7 and seems to be getting worse not better. Now I can't even call the doctor because they won't be able to hear me!

Yes I completely lost mine, was basically mute the whole time. It only lasted about a day/day and a half and then started coming back again. I'm still quite hoarse but can speak loud enough to be heard again. It happened on day 4 of covid if interested.
