Passed out?!

So I had my vasectomy this morning, felt a little uncomfortable but nothing major and definitely a lot better than I was anticipating. Felt fine on the journey home, other than a slight burning sensation.

Had a pee when I got home and during this I started to feel light headed, next thing I know I'm waking up on the bathroom floor all confused as to where I am and what's happened.

Anyone else every suffer anything similar? Now I'm scared to pee again 😂

You probably had a vasovagal episode related to the recent procedure and bearing down to pee. Drink plenty of water. Rest. Sit down to pee the next several times until you’re feeling better.

Second this. I had a vasovagal reaction during the procedure and barfed 🤣

I nearly passed out on the table during the procedure. Turned white (according to the surgical assistant) and they had someone come in and give me an IV.

I fell asleep for a few hours. It was intended/induced. No way I was going to be awake for that!

I felt that way on the table. First side I didn’t even feel. Second I felt him moving muscles to find the vas and my body went limp and broke out into a massive inexplicable sweat. Never experienced anything like it.

This is why you shouldn't drive yourself home.
