Sound advice here, I forgot to shave & when the nurse started to prep me she was like, "You forgot something..."At that point, I had already taken the pill to "relax" me & had no business with a razor in my hand, PLUS, my wife had left to go shopping for a couple of hours, so the nurse had to do itLester Burnham said:
The ONLY thing holding me back is that my doc told me NOT to shave...they do that themselves. I keep my boys pretty clean, so I'd have to let my junk grow hair first, then let some strange doctor shave me.I'm not scared of the shot or the actual surgery, but I don't want another grown man shaving my sack.Sound advice here, I forgot to shave & when the nurse started to prep me she was like, "You forgot something..."At that point, I had already taken the pill to "relax" me & had no business with a razor in my hand, PLUS, my wife had left to go shopping for a couple of hours, so the nurse had to do itLester Burnham said:
I'll freeze some of the boys for youThere goes my dream about Keerock knocking me up.
See you in the summer.
had it done about 6 years ago. the first few days are OUCH.. My cousin let me know that a frozen bag of peas works 100 times better than Ice cubes and he was correct.
As Tim Allen said on home improvement.. Once it is done.. "anytime, any place"

No worries. Ask your doc about Lidocaine (sp?) cream. Its a numbing cream that needs to be dolloped on and covered with "tegaderm" about 1 hr prior to a procedure. On my consult he said Id feel small pain when he injected me with the local. On the sak just above the boys. One injection for each side. So Im a bit worried about this pain. So I call him and inquire about the lidocaine cream. He says whatever it may not help. I say OK. And proceed to use it. It worked like a charm. I honestly felt NOTHING, NADA when he injected the local. I had very very mild discomfort when he did some tugging but it was a 1.0 on a scale of 10.Take it easy afterward, frozen peas and pain meds are good. I had really NO significant pain at all during or post.Good Luck.Consultation: Wednesday, January 30Surgery: Friday, February 15
I will be going to a Urologist in West Bloomfield that was recommended by and esteemed fellow FBG... Not affiliated with Beaumont AFAIK.
Can't you just get some from the Rocket and have Brian McNamee inject it for you?No worries. Ask your doc about Lidocaine (sp?) cream.Consultation: Wednesday, January 30Surgery: Friday, February 15
OK, different spot. Here are the details of what happens during a vasectomy as told one vicodin down:
I think I now hate you.
Don't know why, but the worst part of your story to me was the nurses watching the whole time. That would make me uncomfortable.I used the spoiler tag for a reason.It's not that bad....seriously.
Blanks for 4 years now ...READER'S DIGEST VERSION:
I think they are probably old enough to figure it out, right? I would tell them and maybe downplay it.Question: Do I tell any of my kids (8, 11, 14) that I'm getting a vasectomy, and what it is/means? Would show a sense of responsibility in terms of birth control, but it would also reinforce the fact that I'ming their mom
Would you like someone else to watch?Don't know why, but the worst part of your story to me was the nurses watching the whole time. That would make me uncomfortable.I used the spoiler tag for a reason.
Had it done two years ago. Easy as pie.
Not really..
you realize the x-rays are necessary to diagnose any interproximal decay, which is where 50% of the tooth decay is. I've never understood why people want to deny x-rays so much. Dental digital x-rays are almost zero radiation and without them I'm only checking like 1/2 your mouth. It's like people love to get unthorough work done.
Haha - yes, the obvious one. I guess my biggest fear is if something were to happen to one of our kids and then we decide we want another. When discussing tube tying with the doctor in case we had to have a c-section, she pointed out the possibility of SIDs and that we may not want to close that window at our age. It's a valid point, but I think my wife is done with being pregnant and we could always adopt if we decide on another. We are also in the middle of craziness at the moment and perhaps not thinking clearly. But, I REALLY do not want another one (love you girls!).
Not to get this too far off topic, but I'm not worried about the radiation ... i'm more concerned about an empty wallet.. I understand the need for x-rays.. but I think once every other year is enough for me
It's not that bad....seriously.
