[zzxxee]

im being steralized monday and am im craxxing myself, i have booked a week off work and want to no if any ladies have had it done recently and how they felt after can you pee ok walk ok ect????????????///

If you are having it done the standard way, it is two teeny holes in your stomach - doesn't affect walking or peeing in any way.

You may feel a bit groggy for a day or two, but it is nothing to worry about

dont stress it is major surgery like ethel said, i wee bit of discomfort around the tummy area,they arent going any where around your bladder bowel or your legs, i was up and walking around couple of hours after the op, should try a total hystrectomy now thats major, and the next day up and about walking as if nothing had occured!!!

Hey zzxxee,

You'll be fine

My ex had it done the standard way, no problems whatsoever, just took a rest for a day.

I had it done 6 years ago with no problems, just a bit sore for a couple of days! But be certain its what you want because one day you may come to regret the finality of it - like I do now! Reversal is not guaranteed nor is it cheap!

I was sterilized about 6 years ago; it really hurt when they poured boiling water on my privates!

Seriously though, for all the males considering this minor operation (yes, I know it a post for ladies, but thought I would get my view in) it did not hurt a bit. You can have it done in a Day Case Unit, and you will be in and out the same day. Repeat, gents, it did NOT hurt, so no excuse for a family of 17 kids, 2 is enough!

End of lecture.

thanx for all the advise the reason i have booked a week off is because i am a care assistant for elderly people and its all the heavy lifting and bending i do in my line of work not because im a whimp

[JonnyBoy12]

Good luck for tomorrow, zzxxee, we have not forgotten you. I will be thinking of you all day!

[puddicat]

zzzee yes you need time offf, and your care home should give you sick leave, as youre job incurs dealing with some contact physically with youre service users!!!

[JonnyBoy12]

How did your operation go today, zzxxee? I was thinking about you all day, and how I felt went I had the same thing done. Are you going to take some time off work?

[zzxxee]

my op went fine thankyou to everyone for your concern bit sore but i will live gonna enjoy a few days off work before i go back

[JonnyBoy12]

You are a bit sore from the operation, or from testing to see if the operation was a success?

Sorry, but could not resist that one. Get well soon, zzxxee, we will be thinking of you. Spare a thought for me as well tomorrow I have got my CBT motorbike training.

[zzxxee]

good luck with the motorbike training feeling much better today who knows me and the other half might even go out for a meal later as no kids tonight
