Getting the procedure done this week. Ordered some underwear with ice packs and sleeve for comfort. Planning on laying on the couch watching DS9.

Any advice from those who have already crossed this Rubicon?

If you're just getting it done laproscopically it isn't too big of a deal. Just ice and ibuprofen and laying down for a day or two. Your sack will be black and blue and the doc will tell you volcel-kamala, but most pain should be gone in a few days.

My buddy got his done with like, general anaesthesia and they opened him up a lot more and it sounded like he had a much rougher time.
