Just had a vasectomy a couple hours ago, ask away!

1. How was the initial pain? Like a pinch or?

2. once the pain/swelling goes down you’re still gonna need to “unload the chamber”

3. Keep ice going. Trust me.

   I eased off on the first day because it didn’t hurt, and I was wrong by morning.

   Never hurt bad, but I pretty much lived with an ice pack and rolled towel in my underpants for 3-4 days.

4. I made the mistake of driving myself to mine AND driving my stick shift truck. I was about a mile down the road from the clinic at the precise moment when my local anesthesia stopped being effective.

   That was a rough ride home. Every time I had to use the clutch was agony.

   Beyond that, I try to evangelize to anybody will listen about how good it is to have the big snip done.

5. Be very diligent about safe sex until your samples are tested and cleared

6. How hard of a kick in the balls? Like, a little kid with bad aim kicking you in the balls level of pain, or Shaq giving you a swift one level of pain?

7. May I ask why you had the procedure done? Also did you have to go through a psychological screening process to ensure that you were making the correct decision? You’re around the same age as me which is why I’m curious. Hope your recovery goes well
