Hi Carter, here, these are the medical and surgery procedures I’ve had done

My first one was when I was 12 and had a hernia repair and my appendix removed. Ther doctor doing my hernia repair suggested to my mom and dad that I should have my appendix removed so I don; t have to worry about getting appendicitis later. On the day of the operation, I wanted to be a brave boy and go in by myself to the operating room after I put on a hospital gown, plastic shower cap, special socks, slippers and a mask. Once I was in the operating room I lay down on the table and was only coved from the waist down well the cleaned my belly with special soap and put stickers with wire on my chest. The gloves they were using on me felt funny and I kind of liked felling them touch me with them on. They also put a blood pressure cuff on one of my arms and a little red light thing on my finger. I remember hearing the machines beeping and getting a bit sacred as they pulled the sheet up to cover my body but leave my belly exposed. I also couldn’t move because they put straps around ankles arms and head. After the surgery I woke up in a room with a mask on the monitors some ivs and a tube in my peonies that I only had for about an hour or so. I stayed in the hospital for two nights after it.
The next thig was when I was 13 I got braces but had something interesting happen on the day I was getting them on. First they told me that they were going to be using metal brackets as we had talked about that at my last appointment, then they had me pick out a colour for them. After that I was asked if I wanted regular or flavoured oxygen as they like to put a little oxygen tube under the nose during the procedure to help you breathe easier with your mouth open. I didn’t really like the smell of the one’s they offered so I just went with regular oxygen. Next they took me to a room where I would be getting my braces on. They had a plastic shower cap and plastic gown and a pair of safety glasses with tinted lenses for me to put on. Then after I sat down they put the oxygen tube under my nose and around the back of my head with it being in front of me. Then they had me put on the gown and cap. Then they gave me a cleaning before they did something similar to what’s in the video below for getting my braces on.

Next up was when I was 15 and I had my braces removed they decided that I should have my wisdom teeth removed as they were coming in. I was prepared for it the same way as the guy in this video.

A year later when I was 16 I got braces again for a year and a half in the same way as before.

When I was 17 the boarding school I was at for swimming had a plastic surgeon come visit and assess the boys for gynecomastia. He said that I had a very mild case of it but recommended that I have a procedure done under local anesthesia. It was a bit like this one https://youtu.be/bPUd3vBCZDM?si=4t3n35jv7pEDncdd they had me wear a pair of scrub pants a plastic shower cap a mask and gloves during the operation.
