Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted November 29, 2017 Posted November 29, 2017 I had my prostate rebored a few years ago and they used the spinal anaesthesia. What a weird feeling to watch ones own inert legs being lifted into the stirrups (yes, those stirrups!) and knowing that a surgeon is about to poke a rod with a hot wire on the end up the end of the gargoyle! Peed blood for a while after that - involuntarily. If you have a catheter and urine bag, do try to avoid stepping on it while you walk about! Glad you're okay Scott.

Think of the camera journey through your body as a video game viewed on HD TV. Marvel at the Lasso capturing alien lifeforms and negotiating the twists and turns in your intestines. At some point of the procedure you fall into serene slumber as a result of the Pre Med somewhere along the cameras journey. You then wake up greeted by a pretty nurse serving a cuppa and some biscuits. Not so bad after all. 1 Quote
