I can remember when hernia surgery meant a week in the hospital, but by the time I had one done (July 14, 1998), it was day surgery. It was interesting, to say the least. The anesthesiologist asked me if I wanted to be put plumb to sleep or just do a spinal block. I told him I didn't care, as long as it didn't hurt.:laughing: So he did the spinal block and when the surgeon started cutting, I said something about what it looked like, and he, obviously shocked a bit, said, "You can't see what I'm doing can you?" I told him that big (stainless steel, I think) light fixture right over me was a very good mirror. So I got to watch and ask questions, and he explained as he went; quite interesting.

Of course the next time I saw him, I told him if I hadn't watched everything he did, I would have sworn he left a knife in there.:laughing: It was a bit painful for a few days.

I hear that about the knife left in there:laughing: I dont know how its going to go this time around,the doc's made me stay off work longer than first time but i have lots of sick time to cover it or my 5weeks of vacation,so that helps. I had bad headaches and spent some time in the ER after also. Did I mention I hate needles and they usually have to stick me 3 or 4 times or wiggle the dang thing:shocked:
Thanks for the prayers Brandi...

It's a good thing I had finished my morning coffee before reading this, or I might be having to clean it off of the laptop! :laughing: :eek:

Foreman, my dad just had hernia surgery last week, said he is much pain. He is 73, so maybe it is harder on the "older guys" He had some good meds though, sounded half drunk over the phone and he's not a drinker:laughing:

Now I normally try to obey doctors' orders and pay attention to the directions and warnings on drug instruction sheets . . . however. . . I learned may years ago that Darvon and Scotch worked very well together for me. Your mileage may vary, so I don't recommend it for anyone else.

Bird! Darvon on the rocks HUH??:laughing: Don't think they make that drug anymore though, probably because some folks was drinking scotch with it!:D

A woman living in a rural area wanted to have an outhouse that wouldn't stink. She advertised in the local papers for a contractor that could build such a structure.
After some time, a contractor applied for the job and guaranteed that the outhouse would not have any odor. He got the job.
Sometime after completing the construction, the man got a frantic call from the woman, "You'd better get here fast! That outhouse has a terrible smell!"

He rushed over, went to the outhouse, poked his head through the door and exclaimed,

"No wonder it stinks! You pooped in it!"
