Vasectomy Completed

I wrote about my experience with trying to get a vasectomy a couple of months ago. It was a nightmare experience. Well, today I went to a different doctor for the procedure, and the result is that it was a success. An overwhelmingly easy success.

No startlement, no pain, no muss, no fuss, just a simple procedure, in and out of the office within an hour. I took a combination of Ativan and Benedryl, and they had me right on the cusp of falling asleep on the table. The doctor was personable, informative, and compassionate. The shot hurt only from the initial stick — no burn, no “kick.”

Really, this procedure was so incredibly easy, it’s amazing to me. I’d do this again tomorrow if I needed to. The difference between to the two experiences are like night and day. This time, the whole thing is hardly worth noting on a blog, it was so routine and problem-free.

So, I’m all done with it, and I’m spending the weekend laying in bed with a pack of frozen peas between my legs to keep any swelling down. I haven’t even taken any pain meds. This vasectomy was no big deal.
