Was there any one in particular that was worse than the others? Any words of caution to others who may have the same surgery in the future?
- My first was in high school - all 4 impacted wisdom teeth were removed. They say folks swell up like chipmunks post surgery. Not only did I swell, but I looked like I had the poo beat out of me for a little over a week. All bruised on my face and down my neck.
- In '95, I had knee surgery on my left knee to snip and shave off some torn cartilage. It wasn't too bad. The worst part of that was the physical therapy.
- And a couple summers ago, I had my gallbladder removed. Not too terribly painful but I'm still pissed over the scarring. My belly button piercing is now pointless. Nothing sexy about it at all anymore.
