I haven’t been able to scream or shout, or even sing for more than a minute, for years. I think my last bout with pneumonia damaged something (all the hacking) and I’m late peri now too. If I attempt it, I immediately start coughing. Some days even raising my voice is a problem. I’m about to have parathyroid surgery, I’m hoping it doesn’t go further.
Shelly, thank you for sharing your experiences. You've dealt firsthand with the complications of not being able to use our voices in the way we want to. I didn't think much about my voice until I started having issues. It makes getting through the day that much harder sometimes. Our little larynx works so hard for us. I wish you the best for your surgery. If you're feeling up to it afterward, I'd love to hear how you are doing. We Shels have to stick together.

I didn’t know about voice changes, interesting!
I’m just over here wondering if I’m going to ‘grow some balls’ 🤗
If they are as fun to adjust in public as men make it seem, that could be something to look forward to.
Absolutely! What fun…
