    Ouch--you broke your neck?? You're lucky you were able to get that fixed and not suffer paralysis, as can be the case with neck/spinal cord injuries.

    None unless you count teeth extractions, in which case it would be 4.

    Oh, yeah, I am so grateful that I was not paralyzed in the accident. It always hurts but I don't bitch about it because it could have been much, much worse.

    Indeeeeed, when I was a kid we had a neighbor who had broken his neck and he was in a wheelchair for the rest of his life, and I always assumed that anybody who broke their neck ended up like that.

    Honestly, I used to think that too. A year before I broke mine, my son's uncle broke his. And he was able to have surgery to have it repaired. So, that is when I learned not all broken necks end in paralysis.

    Hmmm.

    Big cyst removed when I was 14.
    Heart-bypass in '96.
    4 angiograms since then (I do consider it surgery).
    Gall-bladder removal in '04.
    Tubes tied in '83.
    Lipsuction (thighs) in '88.

    First was tonsilectomy when I was a kid (They put me under with ether)

    Epididymal Cyst removal in India
    Bilateral Inguinal Hernia repair
    ORIF Left Tibia (They cut me open and did carpentry on the broken bone with titanium plate and screws)

    So, only 4 with general anaesthesia.

    Not counting the many basal cell carcinoma removals, one of which was quite large and took a whole day of cutting and testing to get it all. Or the tooth extractions that required digging with a bone file.
