You should it wasn't a radical inguinal orchiectomy. 

Might want to check and make sure you still have all 3 testicles.  

LOL

He means Shouldice hospital, they specialize in hernia surgeries.  They do not use mesh though.

Had mine done there about 10 years ago, felt like I had 3 testicles after, but was good a few weeks later.  They don’t fuck around there, you’re up and walking after you wake from surgery.

I wanted to drive myself home after hip replacement. The clinic said it can’t happen. I was driving the next day. I think that they underestimate the ability of some of us.

Had left side done 10 years ago with the mesh, never realized how low the toilet was taking first dump the next day, that was a very painful squat......right side now needs it, I am constantly pushing my guts back in.

After I had my kidney out, it wasn't the height of the shitter, it was the shitting, or lack thereof.  

Ate bran muffins like crazy just so it would hurt less.  No strength to grab on for a power push.

Doc sent me home with some restoraLAX just in case the pain killers bung me up.

 

Viper my brother in law was at that point where he was constantly stuffing his guts in,,,his recovery didn't go well but he's also a owner/operator of a contracting business so he wouldn't rest.

How you making out now a couple days later?.....Brother had a small one done laparoscopically and needed very little recovery time. Mine required 6 weeks before returning to work.

 Hoping the precedure since 10 years ago is a little better for my current one. I've put this one off too long, will probably need a peice of mesh the size of a pizza box to repair the tear. Its gotten to the point of strangulation risk.

Not too bad,,sleeping in my own bed last night helped.I'm quite surprised how much better I am today. Doctor has me off work for 6 weeks until Oct 15 but my retirement date is Oct 2 so I guess I'm done work!!! Freedom 50!!!!
