Finally, no more pain.


Damaged my lower 5 years ago. Went to 4 doctors in the town. They all gave me pain killers.

Back to travelling, and doing volunteer work, including 2 years with Blazeaid. In all states I fronted doctors, physios and acupuncture people. They all gave me lots of pain killers. While working with Blazeaid, I finally found a doctor in Esperance, who sent me to Perth. Many months later, and I am in surgery. Never been to hospital before. Boy, what a "trip", dunno what they pumped into me, but what a trip. I finally wake up, and after a few hours, start checking out the body to ensure that everything is still in place. I had no idea that the surgery people

use a pressure pack adhesive to close and hold wounds. While "exploring" the body I find that the person using the pressure pack glue, kind of got a bit liberal with the spraying. End result was that he/she had managed to glue my "wedding tackle" to the inside of my right thigh. Several showers later and everything is where it used to be.

When the surgeon fronted, he advised me that when wanting a pee, I should sit down, as he didn't want me lifting anything heavy!!?? 

 

o always sit

Hello Pipes

I sincerely hope that you have seen the last of your back pain, and that the operation has been a complete success

40 years since I done my back in so what did they do? Would be good to get rid of pain killers after that long. Hope you are well and in good health now. Cheers

Sounds like a good result (both wouldn't be good to leave the tackle there). I had a back operation in Perth as well and also happy to report that I am pain free now as well after many years of pain . Dhutime
