I am planning on getting a vasectomy - first appointment with the urologist is tomorrow - but now that I am researching it I am starting to get cold feet over reports of severe and ongoing post vasectomy pain, granulomas and pressure.
Many of you have written candidly about having a vasectomy, but after the initial recovery period how much discomfort or other side effects have you experienced? Any resources you can point me to would be appreciated as well.

I love my daughter, but now I have a very limited, narrow opportunity to find employment. At 50, it's a challenge to find any job and with 18 years of being a housedad, people think its great that I did that, but no one will give me a job. I would suggest that housedads phase out of the job of raising baby about the time first grade rolls around, and get back into a carreer, so that you have a life 10 years later, versus being unemployed like myself!

Anybody hear of this? Does anybody use it? Does it work?

Figured I'd try out this anonymous thing by asking about anyone's experiences with vasectomies. I'm 33, and have one child and my wife and I agree that we're OK with not having another one (I'm an only child, so it doesn't seem at all odd to me). Rather than her continue to take the pill I've been seriously thinking about getting a vasectomy........
