When I get laughing gas, that's all I can do, and it makes me giggle my ass off. I have to wear headphones to block the sound or I get out of control.

I thought the same thing before my vasectomy years ago. When I showed up for the procedure I asked the nurse/receptionist about it. Her reply: "No, but once the doctor has you by the balls, you're not going anywhere."

Brutal. But your vasectomologist probably wasn't worried about getting his fingers bitten off. I don't even know what that means so don't start.

Which reminds me, there is that old joke about the person on the dentists chair, about to undergo a delicate procedure, who reaches out and grabs the (male, in this instance. For narrative reasons. Thank you) dentist by the balls and says "we're not going to hurt each other, are we?"

Call the dentist's office, ask them for a script for a valium. Seriously, they'll call it in for you, at least mine will/did when I had a nasty extraction.

They haven't seen me before. And really, it's just my usual apprehensiveness about situations I don't control or fully understand. But thanks for the advice!

Good. Even at its best, it's not fun. Good luck, no prisoners!
