My hub did it almost ten years ago by his choice. he did not want me on the pill..
Bascially, if you lay in bed for a couple of days and don't lift anything, you should be just fine.
Honestly, the dog looked in more pain after he was fixed then my hub.. LOL..
Getting that surgery is very nice way of letting your woman know how much you really love her and her health . It's a very selfless act .
