Had mine done yesterday as well. The anxiety of the procedure and smell of burning hair and flesh in the room was the worst part for me. Painless really, but I have been in some discomfort for the last 24hrs! Just smashing painkillers every so often. Discomfort like I say, rather than pain! No riding for 4 weeks I’m told

Had mine done, what was it, 2, ... maybe 3 yea ...

Oh wait, it was in the early 1980s.

Just wait till you have a gigantic prostate and can't pee. Then you will know pain! And the people working the emergency room at the hospital.

They had a big clear hoover hose that the assistant nurse pulled over when they did any burning. Couldn’t smell a thing but I was watching carefully what went up that hose.
Hope the discomfort ends soon bud and that the weather is good in 3-4 weeks
 
Three months to clear the tubes. (y)

I know the NHS struggles a bit these days, but did you goto a private clinic which was also an abattoir ?

It could have been the anaesthetics, but I can't help but think your's was "farmed out" to some local vets who were operating, literally, out of a zoo at the time ...

So how long after did you guys get back to absolutely sending it? My crestline frame got delayed by FedEx so I haven’t even had a chance to ride it yet aside from on my road the night before my vasectomy after quickly getting it all together.

Im a week out now, still tender. Doc said 3 weeks, but I’m not fully sure he understands true mtbing with drops, jumps, etc. I’m dying to try my bike out but for sure don’t want to risk the nads.

3-6 weeks sounds about right before you can “send-it”.
Probably about the same amount of time before I could ride road bikes again. It was a long time ago (33+years ago) so I can barely remember the experience, or I could be blocking out certain parts of my memory.

Bring some AA batteries with you before the procedure.…just in case. Ask me how I know. 😉
 
After my vasectomy, I was laid in bed in the recovery room reading my paper. I was becoming concerned about the guy in the next bed as he was making all sorts of gasping for breath noises, along with a few gurgling noises every now and then.
A nurse came in and asked to see the operation site "just to check for bleeing or swelling". I pushed back the sheets and pushed down my paper pants. She had a good look at one side and then with a pencil (a pencil, not a sterile item I would, have thought!) used it to move my todger (cowering in fear from the assault on the boys) so that she could get a better look.

About 15 mins later a different nurse (different hat) came in and did the same. I said that I'd just been checked, but she insisted it was necessary. While she was giving me a good inspection, I expressed concern about the breathing of the guy next door. "He is recovering from an inguinal hernia, he'll be OK, leave him to us). I looked that up; an inguinal hernia is when your intestines bulge into your scrotum! Yikes!

About 20 mins after that, another nurse, with yet another hat, asked the same question. When I pointed out that I had already been checked by two different nurses in the last half hour, she said "Not shy are we Mr Sordy?" So I swiftly pushed down the sheets, my paper pants, and prepared for inspection as willingly as I could muster.

Ten minutes later yet another nurse (with yet another hat) came into my room. I know when I'm beaten, so I downed fabrics and bared all. "Very nice Mr Sordy, but I just came to ask if you wanted a cup of tea!" :ROFLMAO:

I am convinced it was a set up from the beginning. I knew the Chief Anaesthetist, so I'm sure that she put them up to it. She denied it of course. Good one though!

How long ago was this? That’s a lot of people coming in to see the boys. I walked in and was out of there in 30 mins. One urologist saw and treated me. Haha. It was all done under local. Pretty quick and easy but def had some soreness.

It was 34 years ago, local anaesthetic.

Oh man!, those nurses can be bad-news sometimes. I think there was something else going on.

I’m married to a nurse …and I’ve heard the stories. I just shake my head and say “what the heck!”.

The ole “dirty pencil trick” eh? I think I’ve heard that one before. 😆

I would only worry about the gender.…or if they are wearing a hood instead of a hat 😉
