I was tearing a roof off the day after mine...
Don't play soccer the day after.It actually wasn't bad during, but the next day I paid for it.
I used Dr. Brad Waterman. No complaints.
Hey, I've been Waterman'd too. We're connected now, Carl. Did he has a creepy mustache when you visited him?
Has anybody heard of any side effects. I am being serious as one can throw out all sorts of comical jabs towards this topic.
There is a guy i knew that had to have it reversed as it was causing problems and pain and swelling did go away. fHe ought it for like 4 months before paying out of pocket for the reversal process.

No side effects here or from anyone else I personally know that has had it done. No worries doing the deed, wife off birth control, great decision all in all.
However, during the procedure the doc was demonstrating the procedure to an intern.. "Now we go to the other side and move this nerve out of the way" BAM! He found a nerve that wasn't numb, felt like I was kicked in the stones by a horse. A quick shot of local anesthetic and all was good again.

As far as I know, the choices are metal clamps vs sutures. My doc did both.
Only wish I'd done it two kids sooner...
I'm not sure what options there are...as I remember, for mine he snipped a 1/2" section out (which he showed me), cauterized the ends, tied a knot in each side. He said any one of those 3 by themselves should do the job, but doing them all would pretty much ensure no later "surprises".
No creepy mustache. I would have left.
Zero. Other than the expected ache/pain for a week or so, nothing. (and mine was probably made worse due to the aforementioned soccer game.
)Nope. :greg:

Never heard that. They say the same thing they've always said about birth control and all matters dealing with the bedroom. It's a choice between a husband and wife.

I'd never heard that either Brian. But I say it's between my wife and I also.

My very LDS wife didn't even blink at the idea when I brought it up.
I dug this up during one of my 'I'm ready to get this done' times.
I gave it a lot of good thought, but determined i am in charge of me.

| 21.4.15 | Surgical Sterilization (Including Vasectomy) The Church strongly discourages surgical sterilization as an elective form of birth control. Surgical sterilization should be considered only if (1) medical conditions seriously jeopardize life or health or (2) birth defects or serious trauma have rendered a person mentally incompetent and not responsible for his or her actions. Such conditions must be determined by competent medical judgment and in accordance with law. Even then, the persons responsible for this decision should consult with each other and with their bishop and should receive divine confirmation of their decision through prayer. |
