Got to my urologists office about 9:30 in the morning. He was tied up with a prostate surgery, so he was delayed about an hour. The nurse had me undress from the waist down, and wrap up with a sterile drape. I had taken my pre-procedure meds (cephalexin and Valium) at 9:00, so the delay gave the Valium time to start working. I was pretty relaxed by the time the doc came in. He rinsed my whole groin area with some kind of sterile solution (betadine, I think) and tucked some sterile towels around my scrotum. I tended up when he put the first shot of lidocaine in, but the pain wasn’t any worse than a wasp sting. From that point on, I felt no discomfort. We actually had a conversation while he was working: talked about Star Wars, vacations, driving in snow, etc. One of my vas deferentia was thinner than the other one, and so we talked about it as he cut it, cauterized, and sewed up the proximal end. I’d opted for an open-ended vasectomy, so he only cauterized the distal (testicle) end of the cut. Once he had the left side done, he repeated the procedure on the right. As before, only brief pain with the injection, and after that nothing. Once everything was sutured up with dissolvable sutures, he told me I could shower Saturday morning. No lifting of anything over 5 pounds. Frozen peas and bed rest for a couple of days and Ibuprofen every 4 hours for a week, whether I felt like I needed it or not. No ejaculating for ten days. After that, I have to ejaculate 12 times before I bring his office a sample. He wrote me a scrip for Norco 10, but my pain so far (6 hours later) isn’t any worse than a headache, and not nearly as bad as my osteoarthritis.
