Surgery for me in 2 weeks

[ibified]

thanks for all the input, folks. it seems that the key here is take it super easy the first few days. Now, who wants to fix me some dinner on Friday?

But I had my consultation this past friday, and the dr basically went over everything with me. I don't think im gonna enjoy this, but hey, he wants me to take a vicodin AND a valium an hour before my appointment, so at least i wont care for a little while. =)

Been there, done that.. back in '98~ Simple in office proceedure~ The Valium helps a lot~ After that all you feel is a little internal tug here and there~ Like most everyone else... in on Friday and back to work on Monday~ Worse part..for me anyway... was the nurse holdin my lil' talley whacker out of the way.. and then hearin her and my wife laughin in the lobby room later on!  

Seriously though... the Doc did my left nad first and by the time he was done snippin, tiein, and burnin the ends... my right nad crawled way up inside and tried to hide! He had to tug quite a bit to get that one to a workable position~

had it done late 2000, 2 kids were enough and too many horror stories about the moodiness of women that had the tubes tied. done on a thursday, back to work on saturday (was going to be monday, but the honey-dos wrer killing me.) the next year wifey had plumbing problems resulting in a hysterectomy... 'doh! now it's double coverage I guess. +1 on the peas and an easy first few days. don't forget they're not blanks 'till the lines are cleared. no regrets here

yeah, everything went fine, but damn my balls hurt. I'm doin the frozen pea thing, the vicosin thing, and the movie watching thing. Thanks.

 

[twotonevert]

Live free or die hard, terminator 3, aliens, war of the worlds, hannibal rising, and Christine.

 

[twotonevert]

Hope you get to feeling better quick, dont look at them the first day, its not pretty.

 

[pbghost]

speedy recovery, remember take it easy the next few days

Watch out for the weight gain.

Watch out for the weight gain.

That will go down when the swelling subsides!

 

[ibified]

no, no comedies. I didnt think laughing would be a good thing. I just got movies i had seen a few times or ones that i knew wouldnt have much of a plot. Easier to follow when doped up.

And now my wife, who watched the surgery, keeps trying to tell me about it. Doesnt she realize that I dont really want to know the details?

I think the worst part of my surgery was when the Dr pulled the testi tubes out, what seemed to be 6 inches ( at least thats what it felt like. )I could feel them pulling from way inside somewhere that I did not like. Then I watched him cut them and clip some plastic piece to them. Oh the memories!

 

[ibified]

yeah the worst part for me was the part where they burned the ends shut, and I could see AND smell the smoke. Good thing i was sedated, or I'd have been up off that table in a second!

No blanks here!
