I had a vasectomy at 20. That's one that really should be done under general anaesthetic; it didn't hurt, but I kept waiting for it to, and the thing is, you can feel what's happening. (shudders)

I had one about ten years ago. It wasn't the fact that I could feel what was going on that unnerved me. It was the smell.

I had the snip about 7 years ago - It was sureeal.  It was done under a local anesthetic and while the Doctor was playing with hisn scalpel we were talking about Formula 1 and the Grand Prix the previous weekend.

My only concern was that he was not concentrating enough- fortunately all still worked ok afterwards.

On a more worrying note:- The guy i worked shifts with has had to have a vesectomt TWICE !!  :o

He had  a vesectomy and 7 years later his wife was pregnant.  Obviously this caused some consternation to them both.  They went to see the consultant and he said " Sometimes the tubes rejoin, it most commonly happens after about 7 years, its not unusual !"  He was still a little dubious until he went to have it done again.  The doctor doing the operation said "You obviously had had this done before cos I can see where the tube has rejoined).

I had the snip about 13 years ago - I can see why they get called plums - they swelled up and went purple.

I was snipped about 20 years ago. Why do they always have the nice looking nurses doing the pre-op stuff? Thoroughly disconcerting!

Not being completely anaethatised, aneathatised  knocked out was strange and yes, you can feel everything it just didn't hurt; the pull of the stitches felt a bit strange though. The surgeon and I were discussing football most of the time.

I was lucky, two days later I was back at work.

Someone I knew had it done and one of his testicles was well swollen. Two weeks off work recovery jobbie.

Stitches!  I had plasters.

Sorry, at first glance I thought you had written plasterers! That got me wondering...

This is really an anglo-saxon thing.
You won't find that many men with vasectomy in the south of Europe.

You mean among the anti-birth control Catholic regions!

Indeed. Jolly bad form. In my day we'd have been horsewhipped for saying "catholic" at a formal dinner.

Some visiting Spaniard tried to raise a toast to "His Most Catholic Majesty" and was immediately set upon by subalterns and beaten with knotted ropes.

I once described myself as having a catholic taste in music and was sent by the mess president to sit in a cold bath for 4 hours 33 minutes.

Then of course, there was poor Carruthers who said that his "tailor's bill was due", and this was taken to mean that he was a bankrupt who owed money to to the Yiddish speaking chap who made his mess jackets. Poor Carruthers was cashiered. Ended up in Parliament. True story.

Happy days.

Well, that rules out 95% of human conversation, then.

Phil - stop swearing - alternatively I'm trying too, but keep getting mauled by a ferocious kitten.
