What actually happened is the doctor asked me, "You realise this means you won't be able to have children, and that reversing the procedure isn't always effective?" I said "Yes" and signed a document to that effect. Half an hour later he was hacking away at my balls.
Eventually I felt a sense of relief. It wasn't really bad, not as bad as I would have imagined, it was more the thought of it than anything else. It was finally over and I could relax.
"That's one done, I'm just moving to the next one now."
Fuck! How could I have forgotten how many balls I have?
The after effects weren't nearly as bad as I thought either. I had a bag of frozen peas on my lap for a day or so, and the odd twinge, but apart from that it went smoothly. I'd recommend it. 4 stars out of 5.
I had the same experience Rob! It's not as bad as I thought. Do it on a Friday afternoon and back to work on Monday with no issues.
We are not made happy by what we acquire but by what we appreciate.
