had my ulna and radius snapped in half back in 4th grade, had knee surgery to fix a torn lateral miniscus and to remove half of the cartilege underneath my patella due to the fact that it is spongy, had laproscoptic surgery to remove a 5cm cyst, and had my wisdom teeth removed before they broke through my skin (yes that is a surgery for me bc i was at an oral surgeon and my teeth were impacted) lol :-P next surgery for me will probably be for my hernia if it gets worse and foot surgery is on the list too

Nothing major.
Wisdom teeth (Feb 2010) - All 4 removed by oral surgeon due to them being impacted. Darn things took nearly 4 days to stop bleeding and I couldn't eat or drink until then, and all the gauze in my mouth was keeping me from closing my mouth up. My tongue literally got to the point that it felt like a piece of sandpaper when I touched it. But being put to sleep for the surgery was an interesting experience.
Also had ingrown toenails removed on one side of both my big toes. That was several years ago. Dunno if any of you count that as surgery or not. I've heard some people call it that, and others not. I have a feeling I'll have to go back in the next year or so and get the other side fixed on one of my feet.

I've had those symptoms since I was 5 years old but didn't address the issue till I moved to this country in late 2002. First surgery took place on July 4th of 2003 when I was 17 years old.

I had 3 recurring brain tumors, these ____ers didn't want to go away. After the third one they had to install an internal tube, called a VP shunt, that drained all the brain fluids since my body wasn't doing it properly (hence causing me all those headaches and creating memory black outs).
thats serious business, glad to here your doing better now.

wow! Some good ones. I forgot I had all 4 wisdom teeth and a septoplasty (reboke nose and did some soldering) cause of a deviated septum i had. But brain surgery now thats up there. Glad things got better for you.
I like the electrocution one there. Fuseing two fingers together is cool!

I'm not on Petros' level by any means, but I've had my pinky broken so bad I had surgery to put it back into place, and I had "surgery" for my ingrown toenail on my left foot so many times that they decided to just take it off for good. haha. so I have no big toenail on my left foot.

To me, it seems like everyone has freakishly large big-toe toenails, lolol.

Haha. mine was like that for a while with just the sliver out of the side, and it just kept coming back over and over and over again. So, he just went all the way and took the whole thing off. It's not super weird looking or anything. I mean it looks kinda creepy if your wearing sandals but you can't really notice it from a distance.
