So, I had testicular surgury yesterday. What fun!! Totally benign, it was a complication from an old handlebar/snow endo injury. Glad it is done, but MAN, I did not sleep all night, even with regular handfulls hydrocodone. That stuff made me so hyper, I got up to clean the kitchen at three AM. All the wile feeling like I was repeatedly getting kicked in the balls by a small mallet every three seconds. A little wine helped, at least I am getting some percosets today. Excessive sharing? YES! But hey, semi annonomous bitching is definitely appropriate on this and any web forum, eh?
(at least it is kinda cycling related....)

 

[BurlyShirley]

what's with everyone's balls lately? Dude, glad not cancer...

 

[narlus]

maybe and Tigg can form a support group.

ouch.

[DRB]

I'm not laughing at you right now.

 

[DRB]

Hey did they fix it or remove it?

 

[rideit]

Well, if you want details, they removed an extra-testicular growth that was getting REALLY annoying. It was most likey from minor internal scarring that I suffered in said h-bar incident a few years ago. Basically, they cut a 50mm incision, and yanked out a 40mm thing....I am now back to nice, (painful) two dangling, and that is priceless!

Rocky mountain oysters for lunch, anyone?

So you were sorta growing a third ball?

There is a custom title in this somewhere.

edit: 40mm. That's freaking huge.

 

[McGRP01]

I feel your pain bro. Literally!

 

[rideit]

I think the last few weeks of rowdy saddle time in Utah and Peru was the last straw. I kept thinking that if any chick other than my wife happened to stumble accross it, my line would have been..."yeah, well Lance got faster with only one...three is the reason I'm so slow!!!"

fixed that for you....it's easier to imagine. Glad you're ok.
:nuts:

 

[splat]

Frozen peas are you friend!

but a 50 MM incision!! :EEK: thats huge! Dare I ask how many Stitches ?

 

[rideit]

They just went ahead and put in a zipper.






seriously, I don't actually know how long the incision is, I haven't had the nerve to grab a mirror and look. It probably is much smaller, as whatever they took out (alien baby?) was most likely fluid and malleable...

Did they let you keep it?

 

[rideit]

Why? Are you looking for recipes? Or should I just name it, and wear it around my neck?

That would be quite a conversation starter.

 

[amateur]

That'd just be gross. Keep it in a jar on your nightstand.

 

[Da Peach]

That would be quite a conversation starter.

"Hi there, I'm Rex. See this? It's from my balls. Where are you going?"

"Hey, what's your name, I'm Rex. Oh this? You like it? This didn't always hang around my neck you know..."

If only I had more time...

E.T.: Eddie Torres, the extra testicle

[beestiboy]

Hope you are doing well, at last count I had 3 "extra Testicles" after several ultrasounds they tell me they are benign and to wait to get them removed once I am done having kids. They do make riding a bike a little uncomfortable. And my brother started calling me Mikey Five Nuts.

I approve of this movie reference!


And man, you have to get the old parts back or else how do you know that they did the work they said they were going to do.

 

[rideit]

Oh, I demanded to see the old parts, in order to determine whether they were a warranty issue, or not! Apparently, this was a 'JRA' that went terribly, terribly wrong. I can't imagine what Tony Ellsworth would have done to replace my frame!

(Actually, it was relieving to see that most of the 'E.T.' was indeed just fluid.). The various permutations of the human body are truly quite amazing...so, THREE extras? dude, you RULE!!!

 

[beestiboy]

im not braggin' ok so maybe a little but more so to let you and others know you are not alone.

And just as a little PSA Guys, check your boys every once in awhile. No need to ignore them like Lance did. Just isnt necessary
