Tom,

I had the procedure two years ago (Vasclip). I am VERY pleased with
it. The procedure took 6 minutes from pain killer injection (which
wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be) to pulling up the
boxers. No post operative pain. Just wen home and sat with my laptop
on the couch and Iced for 20 minutes per hour for about 4 hours, and
that was it. No swelling, just a little bruise from the injection.
Two years later, I'm still clean. Very worth the $ for the device,
seeing as how it was so non eventfull, and I still have all my parts
intact.

Just make sure your guy has good hands and has done many vasectomies
under his belt... that will assure that you will have as good of an
experience as possible.

Best of Luck,

Chris
