Vasectomy Happens Monday

[snccoulter]

So I had a bolt removed out of my right foot this morning and then Monday morning I am having a vasectomy. We figure after 3 kids it is time and I may as well get it done while I am off work for the foot so I don't have to take any leave to recover from it. Thankfully the Doc on base was able to push the authorization through in a timely manner unlike how the clinic usually works. So for my Christmas Present I get NO MORE KIDS. :rockon:

The smell of burning "Vas" is the second worst part.. having a doctor continually tell you to relax while he is cutting your Junk now that sucks

[apcronnelly]

Oh boy....there aren't any good thoughts coming from this post.

Good luck man.

When I got mine in July, for the next week and change it felt like I'd been kicked in the groin by a mule. Course it didn't help that I wasn't fully numb when the burning started... :eek2:

Have fun, bud. Better you than me... again. :haha: :2thumbs:

Just hope the power doesn't go out in the middle of the procedure. That's really nerve wracking... :eek2:

reminds me of a gary larson cartoon. imagine two cars driving down the road. each car has a dog hanging it's head out of the window. one dog has a big smile on it's face and says to the other dog "my owner is taking me to the vet. he's going to get me tutored"

[Iceaxe]

That was the most painful experience in my life

[double moo]

too many horror stories out there about pain after the big V. Did mine 15 years ago on a Friday and played league basketball on Tuesday. Get some Compression shorts to hold the boys in place and go about your life as usual.

[Cirrus2000]

Hey, the power went out during mine, but it really wasn't a horror story. Hardly any pain - a couple of slightly sensitive days, and that was it. Nothing to it! :nod:

Seriously, happy christmas and all the best with that.

I had no idea it was so painful. I hope between Kev's story of the power going out and Shane and ilanimaka saying they felt like they had been kicked in the groin for the following year, I hope you guys are just messing with snccoulter and it isn't as bad as it actually sounds. Cause if I weren't scared before this post, I would be now.

when I had mine done it was not that bad after the fact, during the procedure I was umm tense and the doc had to pull on the vas to get enough to clamp and burn, unfortunately the local doesn't go that deep and that seriously hurt. Also avoid using your tool for at least 2 weeks.. I used my tool a week after and that was the only time I really had pain after the procedure :). Never took any of the pain meds still have them in the cabinet actually. I don't know about a change in taste and I don't think I will ever know :lol8:

Good luck on ya Steve we are all rooting for you to get this done :five:

It reminds me of another one: The one dog has a dictionary open and he's kindof gloating to another dog. The caption says "See, it says it right here; FIXED means to make better."

Seems to me that having it done is no big deal.
a cut a tug a snip, some burning and repeat for the other side.
A pair of sweats and a jock strap for a few days, some ice, should be good to go in no time.
People that take care of it and follow the rules after it are normally back to normal in 3 days.

Now then, when I had mine done about 5 years back, I got a ride, they gave me a tiny blue pill in teh waiting room, and called me back about 20 minutes later to do the deed.
By that time, I would not have cared if they shaved my bean bag with a cheese grater and splashed after shave on it.
THe one thing that did bother me was him asking if I wanted to sit up so I could watch, and he would bring a mirror over so I could see it all.
I laid back, and skipped the watching! A very minor pinch to get the shot, laid back for a few minutes for it all to kick in and we got started.
never felt a thing, made a simple tiny cut in the middle of the bag, pulled the tubes to it and cut cut burn! Here came problem number two, he holds up the part he cut out and says "This is the part we juts took out of you!"
I really did not need to see it, just throw it away!
then he tucked the remainder back inside and fished the otehr sides tubes out the same hole. got that done and 3 stitches to close it up, sent me on my way home.
I happen to be allergic to loritabs, so they always give me percaset.

The key to recovery is to not do a damned thing!
I took my pain pills and kept the boys iced down and was fine. THey key is to remember to take an anti-inflammatory between the pain pills.
They get swollen to huge softball sized melons, taking that extra bit of medicine keeps swelling down and helps with the bruising.
My bag looked like mike tyson had used it for a speed bag for a month.
No sex the first week, no sex with out protection till you get results back saying teh swimmers are gone!
I know a guy who got cut, had heard 20 times then your clear and can have sex!
2 weeks after his surgery, BAM! his wife was pregnant again!
I spent alot of time polishing the pope after week 1, plus all the sex we could fit in for 5 more weeks.
Went back and tossed a sample at them, they called me an hour later, still got sperm, keep up the cleaning out, see you again in 4 more weeks.
It was impossible to double my regime on cleaning out the left overs, 2 or 3 times a day plus sex 3 or 4 times a week, how do ya double that? 4 or 6 times at cranking it by hand a day? Id have blisters on my dong!
So I kept the same schedule, and after a total of 10 weeks, 1 for recovery, 9 for spanking it, cleaning out the pipes, and I was certified all juice and no seeds.
Recovery was easy, the surgery was easy, but remember no ride home and you get no tiny pill before they get started. I got my scripts filled the night before I had surgery so it was to the doc, straight home to the recliner and ice and pain pills and tv.

Everyone makes it sound bad and some people do have major problems with it, but if you use a doc you trust, researched a bit, made sure he did not have tons of complaints against him about that procedure, and follow the rules after its over, its really minor, over fast, and I can promise you, that worry free sex is well worth a lot more pain and problems than I had to go through when I had mine done.

I don't know about a change in taste and I don't think I will ever know :lol8:

Well....that's what my X told me.....but the more I think about it.....you can't trust a dam thing that woman says. :eek2: :nod:

I forgot to tell you the best thing about having it done..........no more rubber rain suit!!!! :naughty: :2thumbs: :haha:


Hey, hey now...depends on the woman!
I say what I mean, and mean what I say - and can be trusted to tell it like it is ~ every time. :2thumbs:

1. There is no change in the taste.

2. I was 9 months pregnant with my third child when I accompanied her father to the doctors office. I made him his appointment in fact, & I watched the surgery. One of the HAPPIEST days of my life was to watch him get snipped! :mrgreen: He had promised (just one of many broken promises) to have it done after our second child!

3. The only painful part of the procedure was the shot in his testes. He felt pain sear all the way up into his stomach, but it was brief. Nothing at all like CHILD BIRTH so don't worry. Once the swelling and general discompfort subsided, he did complain had shooting pains every now & then. This lasted about a year...

OK.... I do have anther great story about getting snipped....

After you get snipped you have to go back in a couple weeks later and provide a "sample" so they can make sure you are sterile....

So they hand me a little cup and send me down the hall to a little room to provide the sample.... they told the wife she could go with me and "help" if she wants.... Anyhoo.... as the wife and I walk out of the room I walk up to the nurse at the front desk. The nurse asks if I got the sample..... so I point to my wife and say "yes, where do you want her to spit it".....

About half the crowded waiting room breaks out in hysterical laughter, while the other half registers complete shock....

I thought my wife was going to kill me.... she laughs about it now, but failed to see the humor at the time.....

:popcorn:

ya I asked about the sample.. had to do mine at home. they specifically stated that saliva would make the sample useless..

Then again as I came out of the procedure I was singing "Im Half the man I used to be"

Talk about a nurse laughing her ass off :)

[Iceaxe]

I sent a friend a copy of my snipped story and he sent this back to me.... :lol8:


After I got snipped, the nurse gave me two flasks and said to bring back samples in two weeks. These where at least 1 cup in size. So I just looked at her and told her, "It may take me awhile to fill these".. Which embarrassed my wife.

To which she responded back with a straight face, "Well I guess your wife has her work cut out for her".

My wife turned so many shades of red.

Great thread :lol8:

Had mine done a couple of years ago. I had heard too many stories about what people said or did by taking the "calm you down" pill before the surgery. Things like hitting on the nurse, getting a "tent pole" during the exam. I decided I wanted my wits about me and ask for nothing, even though they asked several times. The only painful part was the shot at the beginning, you can feel the pain move from your groin into your stomach. I was a little concerned seeing smoke and smelling my burned...... whatever it was that was burning.:angryfire: After the surgery my legs and calves were killing me. I couldn't figure it out until I realized that I was so nervous that I flexed my legs the whole time.

Three days of ice, TV, and pills and I was good to go. After 2 visits to make sure all the swimmers were gone, I still had swimmers. I went to a specialist to make sure I didn't have 3 tubes, I guess it is rare but does happen. I had the normal 2 tubes, the swimmers just need a little more encouragement to get out of the pool. The weird thing was the doctor doing the exam for the extra tube spent a lot of time during the hands on portion of the exam.:eek2::eek2::eek2: He would flop it from side to side say a few comments and then flop it from side to side. Ask me if I was sexual active and then do some more flopping. I wasn't sure if I should call the police or buy him a dinner.
