Wish this was possible. Maybe it is? Seems like every other muscle can be strengthened, even the heart muscle!

There are breathing exercises you can do. You have to see a speach therapist for that, they are trained in that. I currently see one in NY for that.

Hey Alex. What sort of exercises are done to help this? My doctor has never mentioned this and it seems to me this is much better than just shoving a script at me.
