Well, good luck yourmatesam, hope your bowels settle down and thanks for bumping this thread back to the top where it can be viewed by a whole new generation of GAGRs. Greatest. Thread. Ever.

Are you going to face your fears with only local anaesthesia, or drift through the procedure on the gas?

Good luck Sam. Make sure you have your frozen bag of peas to reduce the swelling.

I was back at work the next day so it's not as big a deal as you make out in your head.

Having seen a similar operation performed on countless numbers of animals - I think I'll opt for the general as well.

Just stumbled across this in the what's new section. It's Gold! :D

I remember my first experience with this type of "procedure" was when I was about 12, my great uncle and grandpa told me, my brother and cousin were gonna go for a drive with them. Jumped in the back of the ute and headed up to one of the back paddocks. Long story short, as I was the biggest I got to hold one of the back leg ropes. I have no idea why I didn't ask what gelding a colt was before we got there - I was always such a curious kid. Not sure if I would've gone if I knew!

Another story, this time about a mate. He had the snip and took a couple days off work. The day he was due back he calls in sick. I asked him if his wheels were still sore and he said, no they're not too bad. I must've sounded like I needed more explanation so he sheepishly volunteers that he had put his back out. I asked him what the hell he was doing in the couple of days after the snip that would put his back out and he says, "I was trying to look at the stitches".
Apparently they mustn't have one of those little mirror thingys. :rolleyes:

Surely that would be advised against, a twisted testicle is the last thing any man wants?


And if you don't know what it is.. just believe me. You don't want it.

Been there, had that a few years ago now. Painful. Fucking painful.

Ambo drivers were joking that I'd be walking around in circles the rest of my life. Luckily, it was "saved" surgically, and now hangs regally in place suspended by a couple of new threads, never to do the twist again.

Although, I've always wondered what having massive balls would be like. Turns out: painful. Not to mention, being prodded by curious doctors in the ER of all sexes. Fun times. Even more hilarious was the GF's (now wife) call to my parents to explain why I was in hospital.

On topic, best of luck. And the greatest respect to anyone who has gone through with the procedure (on themselves, not others, and that means you, Cyclo!).
