Hmmm, click the link at work or not?

Edit: I threw caution to the wind. Funny.

You'll be fine, man. It's really a pretty minor procedure. I'll probably have one fairly soon, as well. Name-brand OCP's are expensive!

A co-worker of mine had it done and was on his feet a little too often, a little too early. He ended up with an infection and.......well nevermind just take it easy for a few days.

1) Make damn sure the doc is NOT into holistic medicine...other than a local, I didn't even get a piece of wood to bite
2) Shave yourself...don't let the nurse do it
3) Do not let any toddlers on your lap that might decide to stand up and do the happy dance
4) Do not schedule any conferences where you would have to do a bunch of standing up and sitting down as you go through your presentations
5) Prepare a sign to let all interested parties know that you no longer have the potential to cause long term problems

Just also remember that you need to fire off about 25-30 rounds before you are considered sterile. And you should get a count done after that too.

A unexpected and somewhat harrowing update to this little "look at me" thread. After taking in a sample in early June, I called the office and my doctor's nurse gave me the all clear. A couple of months ago, my wife came to me and said "I'm pregnant". Imagine my shock and surprise.

After coming to grips with the fact that we were going to have another baby, my wife miscarried. Despite the fact that we were obviously not planning on having another child, it was a very sad experience.

Needless to say, I took another sample to my urologist. They said, "Oh no, your sample has many live sperm". I told them of my conversation in early June and they said they would get back to me. After checking the records, they said I had never given a "clean" sample.

The urologist called me back a few days later and told me that the nurse who had misinformed me had been terminated. I felt kind of bad about that (mistakes happen), but he said that there were other instances where she had performed badly. They are going to do a take two on the procedure for free (yipee).

Now the real curve ball is that my wife is very emotional about the situation. Her unexpected pregnancy and subsequent miscarriage has her thinking that she might want a fourth child. She is not giving me the really hard sell, but she is talking to me about it...very emotionally. I am still of the mind that three is enough.

What a weird, crappy, emotional roller coaster this has been.

Dude, that's crazy. Many thoughts and prayers to your family. Also, they did tell you that they CAN grown back right?? If not, I think that you have a good case for a lawsuit on your hands if you choose.

I couldn't even imagine going through something like that....

Keep listening to her and she will probably see things the way you do.

Either way good luck, God bless and bump this sucker if anything changes.

Continue to listen intently to her feelings on the matter. Try and lead her into remembering some of the reasons you guys had originally decided to "hang it up" so to speak. Eventually she will come to the same conclusion.

Also... DAMN man! Wrap that thing up!!! :lol:

Dude, that's one helluva story. I had mine done a year ago and my wife has hinted about another. We are looking at adoption now. You should get some literature on that and share with your wife as another option.

I'm considering regressing back into childhood. What kind of benes are you offering?

I'm going against the conventional wisdom and suggest that maybe a fourth might be a good thing.

Wow, I hope everything works out. I know in situations like that, you always want something when you think you can't have it. All you can do is pray and go from there.
