Yeah, not to bring back bad memories for you but my husband said it is NOTHING but amazing how much of that stuff they can pack up in there.......ugh! His problem was more of a claustrophobic kind of thing though. He hated not being able to breathe normally when it was in there. I know that would do me in as well. Speaking of those kind of issues, did I ever tell you about the time he cut his cast off after a torn achilles tendon surgery? Again, same kind of issue - he couldn't stand having that cast on so had one of his contractor friends (who is even crazier than him) bring over some kind of saw and cut it off. In the meantime, my husband had found an alternative boot that they use on athletes and some other devices he used to promote nerve regeneration. He didn't tell the surgeon (who is renowned) what he did until he walked into his next appt with the boot on. He ended up with what the surgeon said was one of the quickest recoveries he had ever seen, so he won that battle.
