Title: Any good tales from the surgeon's table?
Post by: mint_rob on January 28, 2015, 02:50:22 AM

Homie from Japan went all out on tour down under last year and now he's got knee surgery coming up and could use some encouragement...

i had two ankle surgeries between June and November and I still can't skate. The only encouragement I have is to do your physical therapy and don't rush back

best thing about any surgery is the recovery

I'm a bit of a masochist in that regard though - loved the pain of trying to get my stomach muscles working after having a few ft of my intestines removed in 2002 and trying to get pushups back after snapping humerous was a right bitch

on the upside after the gut surgery I was ordered by the docs to eat as much trifle as possible

(I didn't bother with the candles and ribbons after the first few)

i remember i had a boner when one of the nurses put a ice bag on my balls (i was naked under a blouse on the operating table with a broken arm, and fall asleep cause of the general anaesthesia...)
