Why I think that Liam’s voice was permanently damaged during the Be Here Now tour and how that happened

Why was Liam so anxious that he would become useless during the time of Oasis' third album, and why was his mentality so shattered? The instrument that a vocalist possesses is his own voice, and other members who use instruments that exist physically can repair and replace them with other instruments if they break, but that's not the case with voices.

And Oasis was not run in a way that respected that. This is the recorded performance schedule from 1993 to 1998 Australia/New Zealand tour, and after that, it continued with 7 performances in South America before finally ending the third album tour. And when they weren't performing - during the gap period, the album was recorded, and even during the tour, B-side recordings were done here and there.

They worked Liam’s voice to death with such a tough schedule that didn't give him a single moment to rest his voice. When Liam thought that his throat would get damaged if he continued performing like that, he had no choice but to get off the stage and get criticized by the band, the press and the fans. He even had to worry that someone else would take his place if he couldn't perform.

The recording of the third album was particularly tough, and songs like Fade In/Out pushed Liam to his limits, and it is said that after recording the song, Liam was unable to sing for a week. And the song was on the set list 64 times out of the 81 shows of the third album tour.

He continued performing with a tight schedule, and was diagnosed with nodules in his neck by a doctor on December 4, 1997, the second day of the Dublin performance (so Noel performed on the second and third days). The doctor said he had to take a break from performing for a few weeks, but it was impossible because there were so many performances left^^ After taking a two-day break and getting a steroid prescription, he performed until the end of March 1998.

They had a lot of year-end performances planned for the Christmas, but the doctor said the singer has a problem with his throat and he has to rest for a few weeks. Of course, if they adjusted the performance schedule, it would have costed money, but the singer's voice would’ve been damaged if they didn’t. If they knew how irreplaceable his voice was, theywouldn't have done it that way.

Did you know that the third album cycle was the only time they didn’t have a large outdoor/stadium concert since their debut album? They already did Knebworth for their second album and played a stadium for their fourth album, so if they had replaced it with a large-scale concert for their third album, wouldn't they have been able to reduce the number of concerts? But they didn't.

The number of shows Liam had to perform without resting after being diagnosed with nodules. It went downhill from there, Liam’s voice never fully recovered after this

idk who needs to hear this but I keep seeing people comment that someone is trans/looks trans 💀 because they have an Adam's apple. So in the spirit of education, this is a PSA:

The Adam’s apple, technically called the laryngeal prominence, is a protrusion of cartilage in the throat that surrounds and protects the larynx (or voice box). Its primary function is to protect the vocal cords, which are essential for speaking and breathing. The prominence of the Adam's apple also affects voice depth and pitch to some extent.

Both men and women have an Adam’s apple, but it is typically more prominent in men due to the effects of testosterone during puberty. This hormone stimulates the growth and thickening of the larynx, resulting in a deeper voice and a larger, more visible Adam's apple in men. In women, the growth is generally less pronounced, making the laryngeal prominence smaller or less noticeable.

Other conditions or anatomical features in the neck area can resemble an Adam’s apple. For example:

Swollen Thyroid Gland (Goiter): The thyroid gland, located just below the Adam's apple, can enlarge and resemble or even obscure the laryngeal prominence if it becomes swollen or develops nodules.

Lymph Node Swelling: Enlarged lymph nodes due to infections or other conditions can also cause noticeable lumps in the neck that may appear near the Adam’s apple area.

Cysts or Growths: Thyroglossal duct cysts, benign growths, or other anatomical anomalies can present as lumps near the laryngeal prominence.

TLDR; Comments like the above reflect a common misconception that the Adam's apple is exclusive to men or that it's a definitive marker of someone's sex/gender. The truth is that everyone has an Adam’s apple; it’s just often more prominent in men due to how testosterone affects the larynx during puberty. For some women, especially those with a naturally larger or thicker larynx, it can also be visible, and some men have less prominent Adam’s apples as well. Unfortunately, this idea that a visible Adam’s apple signals something about gender identity is rooted in oversimplified, outdated stereotypes. It’s best to remember that bodies naturally vary, and visible anatomical features don't define someone's gender identity or journey.

Found out (via text of all fucking things) that I've got to have more FNA biopsies done on some troublesome thyroid nodules.

I wish they'd just remove my thyroid at this point so we can PREVENT the thyroid cancer they're frequently screening me for because, man alive, I'm so stressed by this shit that all I ever think about is 'is this the day it turns into cancer?'.

How to Shrink Thyroid Nodules without Surgery?

Thyroid nodules are growths or lumps that might develop in the thyroid gland, which is present in the neck. Most of the time, these nodules are benign and not cancerous. However, it becomes utmost important to intervene and treat them because of the potential complications as well as cosmetic reasons. Surgery is a widely used option for the treatment of this condition, however, we understand that it might not be the most comforting option for some people. People generally try to find treatment options that can shrink the nodules without the need of surgery. Thanks to the advancements in technology and modern medicine, there are a wide range of options that are available today to shrink these nodules without surgery, and provide lasting relief against the symptoms. In this article, we will discuss in detail the various options that can help you shrink thyroid nodules without resorting to surgeries, so that you or loved ones facing this problem can make more informed and empowered decisions with respect to the Thyroid treatment​ option you’re going to opt for.

How are thyroid nodules diagnosed?

Thyroid nodules generally don’t cause any symptoms, and hence are detected while scans or tests are done for some other problem. However, if these nodules are diagnosed, the main aim of your Thyroid doctor near me​ would be to rule out any possibility of cancer. 

Physical Exam – Your doctor might ask you to swallow while taking a close look at your neck, because while swallowing, the lump might move up and down the throat.

Thyroid Function Test – It is a blood test that shows the level of Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) in your blood, which can indicate whether you have hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism.

Ultrasound – This test uses high-frequency ultrasound waves to produce images of the patient’s Thyroid gland. This test can easily and accurately give an idea about the location and the size of the nodule.

Biopsy – During this test, a sample of the thyroid cells is taken and it is tested to rule out any possibility of Neck thyroid cancer​.

Thyroid Scan – This is a test which the doctor might recommend to evaluate your thyroid gland. An isotope of radioactive iodine is injected into the vein of the patient to obtain clear results of this test.

How to shrink thyroid nodules without surgery?

There are a number of methods a patient can try to shrink thyroid nodules without surgery. In some cases, lifestyle changes and dietary modifications might just do the trick, while other cases might require some medical procedures.

Lifestyle and dietary changes

Making certain positive changes to the lifestyle and dietary habits can sometimes help in reducing the size of Thyroid nodules. These include regular exercises, yoga, meditation, and deep breathing to maintain hormone balance and reduce stress. Staying hydrated by drinking adequate amounts of water, and getting proper sleep are also very important and can help with Thyroid neck swelling.

Eating food items rich in Zinc and Vitamin B, such as spinach, cashews and eggs, is considered to be beneficial. Foods rich in selenium and Vitamin D like Brazil nuts, Sunflower seeds, egg yolks, certain types of fish, and roasted seaweed,  are also crucial for alleviating the symptoms of thyroid nodules.

Thyroid Nodule Ablation

Among the medical procedures that are used to shrink thyroid nodules, this is the most popular Thyroid treatment​ worldwide among Doctors and Patients alike. It is a minimally invasive procedure that involves the use of heat to destroy the nodules present in Thyroid gland.  During this procedure, an interventional radiologist inserts a small needle electrode into the thyroid nodule. After this, an electric current is passed through the electrode, which generates heat energy in the thyroid nodule and in turn, destroys it. There are many benefits of this method of thyroid nodule treatment, which include:

It is the most effective option for non-cancerous or benign thyroid nodules

It is a minimally invasive procedure, and doesn’t leave any scars

It protects and preserves the function of the rest of the parts of the Thyroid gland

It facilitates faster and smoother recovery as compared to surgical options 

It doesn’t pose any risk of post-operative complications or infections

It is usually the most recommended option for benign thyroid nodules that are causing discomfort and swelling in the neck among other symptoms, and also for the patients who cannot undergo surgery.
