Re: Man Removes Lump From Forearm In Self Surgery
Mine did. But I had to go to a few doctors 'til I got a smart one. Insurance kept saying it was cosmetic and wouldn't cover it, until my doc reasoned that since it was in my breast I could have trouble later; since it would be ignored in a mammogram. And if I ever got cancer it couldn't be detected early.

Re: Man Removes Lump From Forearm In Self Surgery
Damn, that dude has balls. I performed a very minor surgery on myself years ago. I had this weird floppy skin thingy on my neck that I just cut away using a pair of scissors, but that's not much compared to Mr Lump here.

Re: Man Removes Lump From Forearm In Self Surgery
holy bajesus!!! i pussed out i couldnt watch it, hahahah maybe after a shot! hahaha yeah our health care sucks so much ass! just like obama said when his mother died of cancer... she wasnt afraid of the cancer she was afraid of the medical bills she would leave behind! so sad! hey why is everyone so fucking afraid of national healthcare? seriously we need to take care better of people. even those poor 'first responders' to 911 now have to deal with cancer from all that shit they inhailed while helping our country and fellow man. now we are like, oh thanks, but we are cutting your life in half and now we are going to make you pay for it. how stupid.  |

Re: Man Removes Lump From Forearm In Self Surgery
wow good on him, theres a fella here who suffered crippling pain with one toe, cant remember details, anyway he kept getting fobbed off by docs and decided to take a few whiskeys, put a block of wood under his toes, a hammer and chiseled the toe clean off..think he went hospital cos he couldnt control the bleeding and the docs praised him for doing such a clean job...ill look for it  |

Re: Man Removes Lump From Forearm In Self Surgery
Skip waiting lists! Perform surgery on yourself! Anyone languishing, in agony, on a surgical waiting list should take heart from the case of ex-soldier Mervyn Mills, 58, currently in the news for, um, chopping off his own toe with a chisel and hammer. According to the Irish Daily Mirror (no link; the article isn't online), Mr Mills grew tired of waiting for an operation on his toe. It's not clear why he needed an operation on his toe, but it was "rotting away" - so he decided cut it off himself. From the article: (and no, this isn't a piece from The Onion): "I couldn't take the pain any longer...so one night I cut it off myself while my wife was sleeping upstairs in bed," said Mervyn. Brave Mervyn, who only has basic medical training, explained how he planned the operation with military precision: "I put my foot on a wooden block and drank two halves of gin. Then I placed the chisel on my toe and hammered it." Two months later he insists the anaesthetic-free surgery was one of the best ideas he ever had. He said: "That first night in hospital was the first peaceful night of sleep I'd had in years. People might think I'm crazy and I must have been drunk but I promise you I wasn't..." cant find pics  |

Re: Man Removes Lump From Forearm In Self Surgery
he obviously had insurance and healthcare because he went to the hospital anyways maybe he did it just to do it?
