Got my snip coming up on 30 Dec (three weeks before the Puffer, should be an interesting challenge)

Could be 'interesting' or could be massively painful disaster!
I felt fine for riding after a couple of weeks, went out for a couple of hours...Then spent another two weeks hobbling about thinking I'd irreversibly damaged myself.
You could be fine and might feel ok, but please make sure you get a few short rides in to make sure before attempting the puffer!!

Is live streaming it a good idea?

No burning, no stitches. Mind you, it was in Runcorn so wouldn't be surprised if they used their teeth.
Two jabs in Mr Righty; three in Mr Lefty. That wasn't nice.
But all in all, a bit *meh*. Worse than childbirth? Well, I wouldn't do it again 😉

How's it going rich s ?

My plums are actually plum coloured, and a bit swollen, incision has almost healed up though

Couldn't face the tube yesterday so cycled the couple of km to work and I'm a bit tender that dull ache after you've been kicked in the balls

Hopefully fit for again afan on the 28th, but I'm only 50/50 on my chamces

I can't believe you've had a needle injected into your scrotem, then had your tubes tied up, and all you're worried about is how your topiary should look?
Guess that's all changed now?

P.s pray you don't get an infection like I did where your gonads swell to the size of coconuts afterwards.
Not pleasant.

All done, and pretty straightforward.

For the record, I didn't shave and they just gave me a clippers for a diy job prior to the op, needed only a 1in strip defuzzed.

Surgeon said they prefer people to not shave before arriving just in case you get a cut and infection.

Never did finish up this thread. Fully healed very quickly - not been back on a bike yet but might have a quick 1/2 hour tomorrow to check.

Piece of piss really!

Main bits of advice to anyone following in these steps are to hack it back with a beard trimmer then veet it (sensitive veet!) a few days beforehand.

Once the op is done, two pairs of tight pants are needed. I wasn't told this and was struggling a bit 2 days afterwards, then a GP friend told me and I wore two pairs day and night for 2 weeks and discomfort was greatly reduced. Ice pack also v important for a few days.

Children around the 18month age are exactly the right height to headbutt your bollocks. This hurts 😉
