Well, that smarts a bit. (Just got home)

Wish I had more Valium.
 
Some, but a picnic compared to root canal/ tooth extraction. The doctor and nurse who did it were excellent though, incredibly supportive and distracting from the moment.

Co-codamol is my friend right now (due some more actually) and rather than frozen peas, it's the hot water bottle that's helping. Walking around is a bad idea though, and I had to drop boy off at school - cue aching like a motherflipper.

Supportive grundies. I still have to wear them which is a royal pain. Sounds like your doc was OK. The aneasthetic didn't work on lefty and it stung rather alot.

got to say foss you sound like you had a right mare with yours

other then the nurse waving the cauterizing tool a little to close to my tool i actually sat up and watched for mine, the doc was horrified i'd happily watch someone mutilate me.
i did get pretty bad pains afterwards mind, took about a week for that kicked in the nuts feeling to go.

Mine are fubared. The left, I now know, was a mess after the original surgery, as the epididymis was, according to my surgeon, "dilated and stuck down" and "one of the hardest surgeries he has had ever had". My line manager hasn't said much at work as I've had some days off here and there, but he has said, "you are going to sue these bar stewards aren't you"

Short route home tonight. Clocked up 30 over today, but leftie was playing up on the way home. Hope it is ok for Sunday as I have a fifty miler. Not done one since early last year due to problems.

I'm in a similiar position, I've just had an angiogram - in the groin - (mornings got it in the wrist afternoons got it in the groin)
just wondering when its ok to get back on the bike - or turbotrainer-
I was figuring when it stopped rain, warmed up a bit and the roads weren,t under 2" of cow shoot and flood water.
(and thats just the turbotrainer!)

When the wound has healed. You don't want to be riding a bike with an open wound.

it looks nothing , other than the bruising - looks like I've been kicked in the balls, - but they have punctured my femeral artery and I do't want to stress the wound on that.
I think I will take the wheels off and fit paddles. -
