I know we have many men here of a certain age who've no doubt undergone this procedure, so I'm hoping to draw on your experience in this matter to help me better understand what I'm about to do next week.
Honestly, what I'm most concerned about is the anesthesia. I've managed to live my 50+ years without ever having been "put under," as it were. No tonsils out when I was a kid, or emergency appendectomy at any point. I've never experienced anything stronger than novocain, really. So, the whole being knocked-out thing has a me a little skittish.
But, I was also curious about the less daunting things, too. Like, they say to wear "comfortable clothing." Would a t-shirt and sweats be good? Should I wear a kilt to give them easy access? Just stuff like that. And, is the whole medicine/liquid prep process as lousy as I've been led to believe?
Thanks for your thoughts.
