I don't know why i am in this thread... morbid curiosity maybe, but i get the feeling Molesy needed a vent!

Molesy
It was only about twelve years ago now but I've never been one to hold a grudge :)

You and me both lammo, you and me both :)

I'd give it a month, then again if you are going private I've known blokes be back at work within a couple of days. The NHS are butchers. Either way it's not going to make a "vas deferens". Sorry couldn't resist that one. All the best with the pipework!

Molesy
My BiL went private. As he put it, "That's the first time I've paid good money for someone to rummage around in my underwear with sharp tools".

In and out in an hour on the NHS and back running a week later. :-)
My BIL had similar probs to Molesy and it took weeks to get rid of the infection :-(

Had it done twice due to first time now working, I was not in the least bit concerned about going back. Both times on NHS so to say they are all butchers is nonsense. First time O wasn't running but went straight back to work after it. Second time I felt great and wanted to run same day but my wife said not to, so I did 10k the day after instead with no issues at all. Thankfully it worked this time but if it hadn't I wouldn't have thought twice about a third time. And lots of private docs are just NHS docs as well anyway, you just don't wait as long.

I had mine done in 2002 on the NHS, absolute shambles. I had a nurse holding my arms over my chest as I told the guy I could feel what he was doing! After making not so discreet inquiries I found out several blokes had gone through the very same experience. Several of us also received nasty infections for our troubles. I hope things have improved ...
