    Tonsils at age ten or so.

    I thought being in the hospital was so exciting and cool! They told me I would get to have my tonsils in a jar. They lied. :angry:

    LIARS!

    I was allowed to bring home the little stones that infected my gall bladder. My son took them to school for show & tell. The teacher was not amused.

    Not me, but my daughter had her forehead removed, re-shaped put back in with dissolvable plates and screws at 10 months old. Then at almost 5 years old, they put in titanium plates over some soft spots on her skull and put in an implant over her left eye to help contour her forehead.

    She's my little metal head :heart:

    I had a c-section with her.

    I had all four wisdom teeth removed in my teens. They were all growing in at a 90 degree angle so they had to shatter them and take them out piece by piece. Fun stuff.

    Hysterectomy at 23.
    Follow-up surgery a week later to put a mesh screen in place because my intestines were "gluing" themselves to the scar tissue. OUCH.

    oooh well here goes - squint correction aged 6 - didnt work i still go cross eyed :O)
    fistula construction for dialysis X 3 - each one failed so they tried again. - making a place my arm where they could put the dialysis needles
    CAPD tube fitted - so i could do dialysis at home. - tube in the tummy that you attach bags of dialysis fluid to and then swap the fluid 4 x a day every day.
    Neck line fitted- when dialysis wasnt working they fitted a tube in to my heart so i could go on to a machine - this is an emergency fistula basically
    2 weeks later
    Kidney transplant - best day of my life. 2001
    double knee arthroscopy and one resurfaced 2010
