There are worse operations.
Think of the worse ones you've had and imagine turning up to Wendy House in compression stockings

I've only ever had my nose cauterized before. no knives have been used on the orange! there was a pair pliers on an ingrowing toenail once but that's another matter!

Heated irons and tongs ?!!! Sounds like torture to me.
Good luck with the op. I've just got a blood pressure appointment where they will change me onto yet more meds in the quest for the perfect cocktail :( One of the suggestions involves side effects of swelling ankles !!!

Don't worry. They'll either take out the ones that aren't as important or they'll take those ones to replace the non-working ones. It's a lot better than risking legs in the long run.

You know, trying not to pun is harder than it seems.

the only other option is wrapping you in clingfilm,won't cure the veins its one more fantasy off my list ;)

One of my exes had that done. He looked an apsolute scream in surgical stockings, but I think you would rock that look!!

Also, I second waterwytch's idea and offer my assistance. *rubs her thighs*
