Is it true that anesthesia can mess up your singing voice?

I'm going to be getting some surgery done but I'm interested in persuing a singing career. This is something that I've heard of and I really would like to know if its fact or fiction.
Is it true that anesthesia can mess up your singing voice?
being on a ventilator for an extended period of time (days) can permanently damage your vocal muscles and reduce your speaking and singing quality. anesthesia won't hurt you at all
Reply:Anesthesia, no. Having a ventilator tube in your throat can. If the surgery you having is minor, it is unlikely that they would ventilate you. But if you have a concern, talk to your doctor. There may be alternatives. Rather then gas, they can put you out with injections.
Reply:I've never heard of that. But if you do have a breathing tube in it can make your vocal cord folds relax.
Reply:A tube is passed down your trachea between your vocal cords. This may cause some temporary hoarseness, but no permanent changes.
