  • "Was also my first surgery."  I said, "Doc, aren't you gonna give me an anesthetic?  He replied, "No, it would hurt worse than the incision."

    Ever see those movies ... a cowboy, on the prairie, gets snake bit and his partner cuts open his leg and sucks out the poison?  Anyway, I felt like one of those cowboys that day ... I just wished it would have been my leg, and not my neck!

    Reminds me of a joke about snake bites. I can't tell it here, but the punchline is 'the doctor says you're going to die'.

  • I wasn't sure I'd heard it, so I put my mind into the gutter ... and there it was!  Thanks for the memory. :)) This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at August 31, 2018 9:15 PM MDT

    Maybe the doc just wanted to bite your neck. :)

    No wonder you had to have reverse surgery - they put in an electrical plug! This post was edited by SpunkySenior at September 1, 2018 1:12 PM MDT

    Had a very small cyst on my back removed.  Needed one internal stitch and one on the outside.  Local anesthesia only.

    Removal of small basal cell carcinoma from my forehead.
    Took three tries to get the whole lot.
    Left my face asymmetrical.
    Am reminded of Emma Thomson in her role as Nanny McPhee.
