in agony, not a joke.

bengie · 06-09-2006, 16:17

earlier this afternoon i went out to van to put the drills away, whilst standing there a bungee that was quite taut holding the tool boxes in place lost its grip and found its way to my left gonad. at this moment in time i very nearly passed out and virtually laid in the van on my front in absolute agony, I didn't know whether to throw up, poo, wee or pass out the pain was amazing.

but now after a couple hours or so it still hurts like hell and i still feel a little sick so i called up NHS direct for some advice. The first woman that answered the phone promptly hung up on me and the second took my details whilst sounding very dubious and promised a call back that still hasn't happened an hour later. I'm in pain god damn it don't know whether the A&E are going to laugh at me.

please don't take this thread as a joke and do nothing but take the micheal as i really am in pain with this

neelyp · 06-09-2006, 16:20

Who cares if they laugh at you, get yourself down there pronto and get checked out.
Once your better you'll laugh about it as well.

Neil

lozgti · 06-09-2006, 16:23

You have to be very careful in that department.Get it checked asap

Goochie · 06-09-2006, 16:29

Get yourslef down the JR mate. As has been said you've gotta be really careful - it could just be bruised but equally it could cause serious issues if things have moved/torn inside.

**VRStu** · 06-09-2006, 16:34

I saw the title and thought you were gonna say you'd dropped one of your burgers on your toe or something.

postmanpat · 06-09-2006, 16:36

OW that brought tears to my eyes, Get down the quacks pronto, hope everything is ok and still working

gilesk · 06-09-2006, 16:38

What are you still doing online?? Get down to the docs ASAP!

spinndrift · 06-09-2006, 16:41

Hospital now - is the phrase that springs to mind.

bengie · 06-09-2006, 16:42

NHS direct just called back, unless there is swelling/lumps/bumps or the pain increases or even if tomorrow it hasn't started to ease then is the time to get checked out but for its rest and pain killers. no heavy lifting or strenuous exercises.

i think it hurt less when i stuck a Stanley knife in my leg last year

Goochie · 06-09-2006, 16:45

Your colleagues will laugh when you ring in sick in the morning

Oh, b*llox - forgot this was a serious thread

***ncarring*** · 06-09-2006, 16:53

Ouch mate! Hope you feel better soon. Do the obvious - take some painkillers (not of the alcoholic variety) rest and see in the morning.

bengie · 06-09-2006, 16:53

thanks phil

i already calle dup to inform them of an accident and that if it doesn't improve over night i may not be in and guess what? my line manager was virtually wetting himself

i know how funny it must be from others eyes but by god does it hurt!

jec · 06-09-2006, 17:05

Bugga NHS Direct, its nothing but a glorified medical dictionary, get to Casualty, wot do you pay taxes for?

spinndrift · 06-09-2006, 17:07

I'm with Jec.

HOSPITAL - not only will it ease your mind but you'll bring a smile to someones day too.

Schern · 06-09-2006, 17:45

Already brought a smile to mine lol. Know it must hurt like hell, but it made me chuckle. Bungie straps are lethal at the best of times, let alone when ones trying to remove a testical! I'd get it checked. Last think you want is to find that it twisted it or tore the connecting tube (can't remember for the life of me what its called) so I'd get it checked pronto.

Lovely line......

the connecting tube is vas deferens.
Bengie, you have my sympathy. I'm no stranger to being hit in the gonads. Though I usually go for low impact - doors, tea trolleys and bits of random office furniture......

Buster · 06-09-2006, 19:29

Bengie, a tip- don't cough or laugh, incase the bungie had dislodged it! Get down A&E ASAP.

You goign to change your name from Bengie to bungie?

bengie · 06-09-2006, 19:29

it'd be worth the drive up to see if your smiling afterwards chris

**tfboy** · 06-09-2006, 19:56

Just in case the one in the kitchen fails you, it's nice to know that a tool box and bungee strap double up as a nutcracker, although admittedly, not in those circumstances.

Get it checked out. Dunno how I'd survive without burgers next year

What?? I'm not allowed to laugh at a joke on the thread now?? (Goochie)
You really must stop thinking that I would be so pathetic as to laugh at your most unfortunate accident

Wayne Kerr · 06-09-2006, 20:07

Oi, sick note!

Can you post a picture of said " injured gonads".
I'm sure all will see the true extent of your injury, therefore a full diagnosis can be debated.

ps; how's the Bungey Strap.

I've just eaten!!!!

Oops sorry mustn't laugh at your post Wayne!!!!

Lummox · 06-09-2006, 20:10

Dr Zoidberg should be able to help. The crustacians often suffer engourged gonads, I believe during the mating season. Maybe you need to get jiggy with a Lobster or something???
