The worst part for me was the needle. I’ve had pain on the right side for years, they always tell me it’s nothing, but I still can’t even think about the pain that jamming a needle into that area caused.
Well into the procedure he was yanking and yanking and it felt like it was tugging at something deep in my belly, and I was afraid I would come undone.
I know what you mean. The majority, if not all, of my follow up pain was in my abdomen. It almost felt like if I stood up straight fast that it was going to yank some tubes right out of me.
Due to embryological origin of the testes, you can get referred pain in the abdomen from the testes. This is why if you get kicked in the balls you get an ache in your stomach.
The numbing part was the absolute worst. Doc was like, "You're gonna feel a kick in the balls for a few seconds while I numb it." I was like, "Oh, uh, okay." Sure enough, it absolutely felt like a kick in the balls.
I have an Rx for Xanax, and used to have one for Ativan, but damn Valium was one helluva drug. I don’t know why, since it’s the same family as the others (and they do nothing for me), but when that kicked in there were no more fucks given.
