hey ya max....
i had pretty much the same experience you did.
they used valium to "sooth" me and it was done rather quick. i felt like a million bucks later that day. and the next. but i listened to the doctor and to my mate and did nothing for three days. it paid off and i was ready to go back to work on the next monday.
one rather perturbing side effect of valium on me, i didn't shut the hell up. and i KNOW i talked to much. it was sort of like drinking to much and blabbing allot of stuff i wouldn't ordinarilly let out. no harmdone i guess.
i think they wanted like 6 weeks before they tested my count, but i went in 4. all clear, and happy to not have to worry about birth control (even thought that IS really birth control) but i mean all the rubber stuff and creams and junk. yuk!
zev, snipped and free at last.
and yeah, i waited till i was out and free
now, if i could just get those support payments snipped.....
