Snip snip... That was fun.

All this talk about stitches - they Dr. who did mine didn't use stitches - worked out great. Asked him to take out an extra long piece so there was no chance to have it grow back. He gave me the pieces in a jar and I had them on the fireplace mantel for about 2 months. :laughing:

A little nick and a stitch or two is a lot less traumatic than pinching off bull calves with those big ***** pliers.
My nuts would ache for those little dudes as they raced out of the shoot bellowing in search of their mama's.

Ask a man if he would like to be kicked in the nuts more than once
Ask a women if she would have more than one baby
I think we all know the answer...... Go figure

I feel this is in part karma for all the bull calves I have cut or banded. Poor little guys

I had mine done on a Friday so I could be back to work on Monday.

The Dr. botched it and had a ton of swelling so each one was like a grapefruit.

I worked on an assembly line pulling a garden tractor 20 feet to a pack off station, and then put all the steel framing all around it for shipping, then hoist it off another 15 feet. Maybe 10 times an hour. Needless to say I was walking back and forth legs wide open and they were really swaying and swelling. After a few days things started going down.

But then sex was wild getting those things slamming around.

The technical term for this is collidis.

Had mine done 23 years ago. Was in a fair amount of pain as I drove myself to and from the procedure. It was about an hour and a half ride home from Boston when the "BIG DIG" was going on, so it was a pretty uncomfortable ride in the pickup to say the least!!!

Next morning it felt like my right nut was going to explode!!! Called the doctor's office and got the nurse practitioner on the phone. I explained the pain I was having and she responded..."The pain on one side can be significantly more than the other. Seeing yours is on the right, that's your "Dominate ********". I'm thinking like WTF does that mean. She explained one side usually handles more of the workload and will "backup" more than the other, now that things are "shutdown". Who would have guessed!!! :confused3:

I had mine sniped on a Friday in '75. Family Dr. told me to drop trow and hop up on the table. Spent the next 2 days sitting in the rocking chair with ice down there. By Sunday evening I was back to normal.

Shoot! I don't know what you're talking about. The pain a woman feels during child birth almost is as bad as it is for a guy to get sick. The pain in real!

Read about my shaft being stitched to my sac right now and then revisit your thoughts.

Haha good point. Procedure was done Monday, made sure everything still worked right Tuesday and hooked up my batwing to go mow most of tomorrow tonight. I never thought a bag of peas could feel so good but they do.

Sounds like a sound bit of advice right there! :shocked:

I'll chime in.... Had mine done 24 years ago (about this time of year actually). My dad took me so I wouldn't have to drive my truck home. Scheduled it early in the week so the kids would be in daycare and I could have a couple of quiet days at home. Did the whole sack of peas thing, etc. Was OK for the first few days, then at the end of the week the pain was so bad that I was praying that my testicles would just fall off!! A day or two later and it was all fine again.

I was 31 when I had it done. The nurse was an attractive woman in her mid-30's. No, I didn't get a ... well, you know... in the room. But, when we were all done and she was wiping all the antiseptic off me she said "well Mark, do you want to sign a bit and see if you can hit the high notes now?" Sheesh! I wanted to smack her! LOL!:thumbdown:

Then, you had to bring back two "samples" make sure you were actually sterile. The first time I came in, I tried to be discrete as the waiting room was full of senior citizens. The receptionist practically yelled "OH, YOU'RE DROPPING OFF SEMEN SAMPLES?". Sheesh! A week or two later I bring back in the second sample and get a different receptionist. I decided this time, what the heck, and decided to be just as brazen as the first receptionist was. So I walked up, gave my name and said "I have a little present for you!" She says "wait a minute" and... puts on a rubber glove, picks up a little trash can with a plastic lining, holds it at arms length towards me and very squimishly says "drop it in there". Sheesh!:laughing:

But the worst part of the experience was comparing notes with a friend of mine that had it done about a year earlier. He was about 6'6" tall and was (according to his wife) "proportional". He said that they had to put a rubber band around the end of his tool to secure it out of the way and that they gave him mayonnaise jars for his samples. I had to tell him that the OR was cold and that I was in "ultra defensive mode" so they couldn't have gotten a rubber band around mine if they'd tried. And, they gave me tiny pill bottles for the samples. He said that I just didn't measure up!

That’s hilarious! Glad I’m not the only one. Went and mowed 23 acres yesterday. Knocked it out in right at 3 hrs and I was grateful. I was pretty sore the rest of the day and the incisions bled a bit in my tighty whiteys. Added the jock to be extra secure. Best thing will be when the ugly undies can go away!
