Get advice from smart people on medical procedures

[Rome]

When they first administered it I was texting with a co-worker and she said the text looked like this:

lasdklfj kkd;sm mjdlleeum!

And it made perfect sense to me.

Telling you, it was great dope.  I could see getting addicted to it in like five seconds.

I'm going to hit up some Dulcolax pretty soon. Should I post pics?

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh

Was that an Ahhhhhhh of satisfaction? If not Chuggie would like to manually disinpact you.

Two days ago, I was self-diagnosed with Plantar Fasciitis.

Has anyone else suffered the same fate?

Never had it but it's pretty common.  Take it easy for a few days, take some anti-inflamamtories and do some stretching.  Good excuse to get a foot massage.

It's gout.  Or malaria.

I'm sure some of  you have had laser surgery...I've been thinking about it for years, and have been too much of a Hoyda, thinking that the long term effects may outweight the short term benefit. I feel a bit more comfortable now that people are 15 years removed from the operation, and most have minimal to no problems, but I'm also terrified of a laser slicing through the middle of my eye. I'm getting tired of being a slave to my contacts though, so I think I'm going to start researching..

Opinions from those who have had it?

One of my friends just got Lasik and tried to make a big deal out of it, so I made fun of her. She threw a hissy fit calling it 'a life changing surgery'. It's farging Lasik. You're not having a malignant tumor removed. It's a non-event.

Moral of the story, don't make a big deal out of laser eye surgery or I'll make fun of you.

It's not a big deal anymore; I feel like everyone has had it done. The issue lies in me being a puss about the laser cutting through my eye - which I'm sure is nothing.

Oh, and also - would I typically receive any post-op drugs?

You get your choice of weed, coke, or meth (1 gram max per surgery).

i have perfect eyes (and testicles) but how is all of a sudden being magically able to see not a life changing event?

[rjs246]

Something can be life-changing and still not be a big enough deal to post about it four times on the facebooks.

A girl I work with just had the surgery and it sounds pretty farged up. They hook up some sort of Clockwork Orange contraption on your eyes and give you a local anesthetic, but you're awake and alert during the procedure. You will not get drugs afterwards.

Sounds like a successful surgery is worth at least six facebook posts.

I promise I wont post updates on facebook.
