I had eye surgery once when I was little. They actually took the eye out of its socket.

that is disgusting and probably not true. I've had surgery on both my ankle and my shoulder, ankle was way worse just because i actually cracked my heel bone and now i have a metal plate in my foot. The shoulder was just a arthroscopic quicky, but hey i got lots of pain meds (good ones) out of both of them.

yEAH, sORry Void, I should've put "Wisdom Teeth Removal" instead of "Lasik Surgery".

It's absolutely true. I had a condition similar to lazy eye, and they were able to correct it with this surgery. Medical technology is a wonderful thing.

They only allowed me ten choices. I should've included abortion and wisdom teeth, instead of foot surgery.

I wonder if those five people really had brain surgery?
I've had my Brain liquified before (that's how I lost use of my body for a while).

I don't know about you, but they stuck a "Turkey baster" in my ear and flushed it out.

I don't know about you, but they stuck a "Turkey baster" in my ear and flushed it out.Wow, I'm surprised it was listed as a choice; it was the first thing I looked for. My one and only surgery was in my ears when I was five years old. They put a couple very small tubes inside my ears to drain up any excess wax or something, because I was having some ear problems.

Interesting poll results.

Yeah, some people are born with excessive ear-wax buildup, I read something on it, but I didn't really register it. Something to do with their inner-ear.

You didn't put Neck Surgery... So I clicked on Shoulder surgery. I had Hodgkin's Disease and had a lymph node the size of a golf ball removed from my neck. It was fun!

I had my appendix out. It wasn't that bad of an experience but the scar got infected afterwards. I was in the bathroom at school one of my first days back and I remember passing out in one of the stalls. Not fun. They removed the infected tissue and I was fine after that. I just wish I had been old enough to appreciate the various drugs :)

I had an abcess removed from the base of my back. Sitting down afterwards (and before) was not fun.

Sorry, missed the "d" in Appendix.
I'm sorry, a skull fracture wasn't on your list for me.
About, 4 yrs ago now, I was walking home after a heavy night of drinking, and 3, still unknown, guys jumped out in front of me, and surrounded me. Asked me what school I went to, then asked if I wanted to fight. Obvoiusly, I said no, tried to get out of their, and one buddy grabs me by my shirt, pulls me back and SLAMS me in the right side of face. First rule of fighting, ALWAYS take off your shirt. After that, all I remeber is cracking, and me trying to save my face.
I estimated I got punched in the face once, and kicked in the face about 25 times. The end result was me in a hospital for 2 nights, and my right side of my face was completly caved in. I couldn't even open my mouth.
They flew in some high class, foreign doc. to fix me up, and what they had to do was uncave my cheek bone. So, they make a cut, me knocked out obviously, near my right temple, and slid a wire down in my face, hooked onto my cheek bone, and pulled upward to rebreak that bone back in place.
When I woke up, it was instant pain. Not only do I have a scar on my head, I suffered severe depression, since I was fighting it since hiigh school already, survived suicide attempts from pills, many, many pills. But, I have since overcome my depression, took up kickboxing 2yrs ago, and now I enjoy beating the living piss out of anyone who tries to beat me down :thumbsup: So if anything, this event has made me a stronger person.

i had the ear wax removal when i was very young, like when i was 3 or 4, i had an infection. then i had my appendix taken out. they showed it to me after and they said it was 4 times the size of a regular appendix of a kid at my age at the time. i barely even remember what happened afterwards cause i was drugged up to the max lol

not sure what it is called, but surgery on my stomach.
i was born about 2.5 months early so the muscle in my stomach that controlls when it opens and closes to recieve food was not fully developed. so basically all of the acid in my stomach was being forced back up into my esophagus because the muscle couldnt keep it down. well, when i was about about 8 weeks old a feeding tube was intalled directly to my stomach because the acid had burnt 3rd degree burns in my esophagus so badly that i couldnt keep anything down.so the doctors used part of my large intestine to wrap around the top of my stomach where the muscle was supposed to be, so it could open and close independently. you should see the scars.
