So after being unable to play my flute or sing for the past two months, this comes as a huge relief.
Upon using a flashlight on my throat this morning, I noted that the ulcer is now HALF the size it was a few days ago. I've been able to talk, but singing was a no-no- it hurt too much, and didn't sound good at all. I might as well have been a mute for the amount of sound I could produce.
But, I tried a few minutes ago, and MIRACLE! I can sing again! It doesn't even hurt(though that could be the ibuprofen)!
*sings the happy song, which at the moment is One-X by Three Days Grace*

Good times! Just make sure you take it slow, okay? You don't want to irritate it again.

Oh, of course. I'm singing softly, in the range that's comfortable. No Phantom of the Opera or Defying Gravity for me for a while yet.

Thank you. Now I've got "The Phaaaaaaaa-ntom of the Opera is theeeeeere..." stuck in my head.
Posted by Tinros (Member # 8328) on :
Not a problem. Hey, at least it wasn't, "I've got a lov-e-ly bunch of coconuts..."
Or wait, maybe it is now.
Oops.

I'm playing the Wicked Soundtrack right now, I'm singing along to Popular right now!
I hope you keep improving!

Isn't it wonderful?? Congratulations! I'm finally getting to where I can, again, after my surgery, and it's so fantastic. I missed singing so much! (Especially since I'm a voice major...)

Great, now I've got tPotO stuck in my head too!

Hooraaayyyy! Man, that stinks that you had an ulcer on your throat. I've had one of those before, and it was monstrously annoying. I'm glad you're feeling better!

I did that as few days ago, and my wife smacked me.
Of course, I can't sing well....and we were watching the end of the Wizard of Oz, where Glenda floats down on the bubble-gum bubble to tell Dorthy that she can go home.

Dorothy would have been completely justified in slapping that dippy grin off of Glinda's puss at that point.
