When I was eight or nine I had major eye's surgery. The area around my eye absessed and the whole area swelled up to the size of a baseball. I ended up having to go into surgery for about 10 hours get it fixed up. Spent 2 weeks in the hospital.


Last I got my tonsils taken out, after the surgery when I was still a bit doped up I screamed at the doctor to get me some "fucking pain killers"

ummmmmmmmmmm



fuck

chestsurgery, involved this thing

put in my chest to bend out some of my inwardbent ribs. basicly glorified plasticsurgery but done with a whole crew of surgeons.

fun times.

left two scars on the left & right side of the chest


they looked nasty and shit in 2002 but now they looks just 'normal'

Knee scoped twice, once when I was 3 or 4 and again when I was 14. I don't remember the first one at all. The second, I just recall a bit of soreness, nothing major. The worst was waking in the recovery room. I felt like complete garbage and immediately rolled over and vomited.

Outside of that, I've spent quite a bit of time in the emergency room for various injuries. AND I STILL SQUIRM LIKE A PANSY WHEN IT COMES TO SHOTS!

I had a tumor removed in my armpit 2 years ago. It was a lymph node about half the size of a golf ball. I will never do surgery awake ever again! I could feel the doctor pushing his finger inside my arm and pulling things! It was disturbing and I was shaking for 3 hours after that! Lesson learned is to always ask for drugs to go sleep sleep.

1)When I was about 8-9 I had my adenoids and tonsils taken out.
2)When I was 15 I shattered my cheekbone and had to have that repaired.
[[field hockey ball to the face.. ouchhh]]
3)I had to have my nose repaired twice.. I broke it cheerleading [double tuck basket toss=heel to the face] and when it was still healing I managed to re-break it even worse..
What can I say.. I like my contact sports

I smashed my front teeth doing that in school. mega-ouch. And that was after I'd smashed the same front teeth falling off a bike onto a kerb jaw-first. blah

I had my nose broken, but I don't consider that a surgery. They place a metal bendy thing on top of it and,..voila..

I broke/chipped my two front teeth playing football in the snow when i was 10. The funny part is that i ran into a metal gate

I had pieces of cashew removed from my trachea when I was 4 because I was eating 'em and running around the house so the fragments went down my windpipe. Mom says I turned blue because I couldn't breathe. Not sure how I survived that one. Thanks, God!

You'd only notice if you looked at them closely, but they have sort of an off-white colouration to them. Dentist told me they were "dead" because of all the shock over the years. Ded teef. /mourn

ha me too!
my four bottom front teeth though. Last year I needed a root canal in one of them and I was like fuck man, I need to brush more cause thats probably why. But then, get some x-rays done and they're like huh. You have the same damage done on all your lower front teeth. Basically, sometime between when those teeth came in and now, you got hit in the face. HARD. And we all lol'ed, and then I had a root canal and hated them again. But yeah, I got the discoloration too, its weird. Funny thing is I never don't remember getting hit one time that might've done it, I've lose count. Playing basketball when I was young I got elbows to the face all the time but none that badly, soccer I got the same, but nothing badly, and I feel like it probably came from my days playing ultimate frisbee. Not only elbows, feet, and knees to the face, but I landed on my face more times than I'd care to recount . Hey, at least one time I broke a dude's leg playing a 'non-contact sport'. Lol!

psh i wish thats all i had. they had to go in and reconstruct almost my whole nose. the first time it basically was smashed. it wasnt just knocked to one side or the other. then they had to take out a bump caused by the break [for the 2nd time] and carve out stuff so my nasal passages could heal right. it fucking sucked

DIY redneck pocket knife surgery for the win-

Man cuts off own arm to escape fire
November 27, 2007 - 8:15AM
A man whose hand got caught in a corn harvester cut off his own arm with a pocket knife after the machine started a brush fire.

"I just told myself, 'I'm not going to die here'," Sampson Parker told NBC's Today Show on Monday.

"I just kept fighting, kept praying. And then when I did get loose, I jumped up running, I had blood squirting from my arm," he said of the September incident. "It was pretty scary there for a while."

Parker, a construction supervisor in Kershaw County about 20 miles east of Columbia, farms as a hobby. When he tried to remove a cornstalk stuck in the rusty harvester, his hand became stuck.

"I went up with my hand, and the roller that takes the shucks off the corn had grabbed the glove and pulled my hand into the rollers," he told WIS-TV in Columbia.

Parker called for help, but no one was around.

After about 90 minutes, his hand went numb. He jammed a rod into the machine and started cutting away his fingers, but the rod and machine sparked a fire. He used his free hand to fight the fire but knew he was in even more trouble.

"My skin was melting," he said. "Like melting plastic."

It was then that he cut off his arm to free himself.

"I could feel the nerves as I was cutting my arm off," he recalled.

Parker ran to his truck and drove to the front of his home about the time firefighter Doug Spinks passed by. Spinks wrapped Parker's arm and called for help.

Parker said he is doing fine now and has tried to put the ordeal behind him.

"It really wasn't the corn picker's fault. It was my fault. It was just a mistake I made," he said.

Some medical things can be bad, however, things can be much... much worse...

oh no shit. i saw a teaser for that last night and was like wtf, that happened like a year or two ago (thinking of the mountain climber who got his arm trapped under a rock, alone, and had to cut off his own arm, then walk several days to survive. i thought that one was more badass.

i had surgery on my mouth when my wisdom teeth were removed
i had to get my head sewn up after i cracked it
i had to get my toes sewn up after i dropped a huge glass jar on them
i once had steel pins in one of my knees when i cracked it

not completely real surgeries, but kinda.

What does it feel like when you go under? I was told it feels something like have a rush of cold water run over your head. Is that true?

How long did it take to have the appt. made for the surgery? Like... did you have the surgery 2 weeks after you found out you needed it, or 2 months? Etc.etc.

haha its not like feeling anything
its more like one second you're waiting for it to hit, the next moment you're coming out

rofl when i went for my wisdom teeth it was my first time going under, nurse put the mask thing on and told me to count backwards from 100
i got to i think 96

Just had two toenails sorted out, nothing major.

Watched a quad heart bypass operation as part of my MSc. Very interesting stuff.

Thankfully the only thing I've ever had was wisdom tooth removal.

The entire operation was worth the 3 seconds that I was higher than I have ever been in my entire life. He tells me to count backwards from 10 and I remember thinking to myself "god damn I'm so high" and then I woke up in the recovery room.
