Cyst Removal

First off, to those with a weak stomach, my sincerest apologies; however I felt it necessary to post about the fact that I just had my cyst removed and that it kind of sucked. I can't post the pictures at the bottom of the post so... Sorry! Anyways, I just got out of the surgeon's office where they removed a large cyst I had on my back. (I'm about to go into detail, stop now if you want.) So I go in, lay down and then have novacane jabbed into my back. I'm not particularly fond of needles, thus having 6-7 shots of novacane to numb my back was not precisely fun. Afterwards, I feel something dragging across my back and realize that he, the surgeon, is cutting my back open. Then. For the next ten minutes I feel a series of tugs and pulls on my back and hear/"feel" him snipping away at something. I say "feel" cause I could feel something happening, but couldn't really put my finger on the type of sensation. There were a few times where he cut out of reach of the novacane. THAT, SUCKED. Aside from that everything went smoothly enough. Also, it's an odd feeling having thread lace in and out of your skin. Well, that's all, the novacane will wear off in about another 30 minutes so... I'll update when it does. Cheers!
