    2 - Wisdom teeth when I was 16yrs old and reconstructive surgery when I was 19yrs old. Probably will need at least one or two more in my life, but I don't mind. :)

    I had a small benign tumor on my head removed. My husband kept telling me it was my twin that I absorbed. I still hate him for that. :grumble:

    17 yrs old - repaired all the ligament & tendons across top and outside of rt ankle
    25 yrs old - repair to the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th metatarsals in rt foot
    27-28 yrs old - exploratory abdominal surgery due to blunt force trauma - spleen removed (also repaired lacerations to both legs). Also had multiple Irrigation & debridments (about 25 in all) due to subsequent infection as well as 2 scar revisions to lacerations to head.

    Also have been under concious sedation for multiple proceedures including having my heart "reset" due to an accelerated heart beat. About to go in for banding of varracies in my esphogus on 6/22 and will have a second proceedure for the same at a later date.

    That's all that comes to mind for now.

    I'm 24. I got breast reduction surgery last year. Really glad I did that!

    And the painkillers they give you afterwards are fun times? Trying to switch from painkillers to tylenol is not as fun. XP
