My procedure was much the same. I was lying back and started smelling burning flesh. The something burning was me. I still chuckle at the thought. Have had some cysts cut and cauterized out. Smelling ones own burning flesh is an interesting experience.. Must not have ever singed many birds... not a lot of difference to my nose. Even when dealing with burned bodies still seems about like burning feathers to me.

I'm 42 and the wife just gave birth to our second.
We talked about it. I ain't going to do it. 42 and a child birth. I"d be ready to hang myself..... My brother just had one a couple years ago at age 47. Told him I would have cut my wrists with a dull butter knife first...

Had it done over 35 years ago. Pain - NO, most I can say is I felt the cut - but NO pain. Recovery - NO problem, no drugs, iced once... you may want to avoid stairs for a day or two. Biggest problem - when he stitched I think he folded the skin, one side felt like a pinch till the stitch came out, three days later. For me there was no cauterizing... but the wife did find the clamps they put over the end of the Vas , the other end is left 'open'... Insurance paid for it......... Dancin' in the rain....Rain-coat free for life! Side effects!?!?! Knew of one guy that 'repaired' himself!?!? Another that began to get aroused during prep... Nurse took it in her hand smacked it and said '...they'll be none of that...' he said that 'immediatley... there wasn't' As someone also said.. knew of one that did not have plumbing on one side, he got a little swollen, so he said... something about softball size!?!?!? They tape your D!(K out of the way for the procedure, and one nipple was sore for about two days after they ripped the tape off!

Another reason for that "tugging up in my guts" and for the perception that "local" doesn't work is that your friendly 10th cranial nerve -- the vagus -- heads south from your brain base bypassing the spinal nerves and ends up permeating almost all of your viscera; that is, all your innards.
You can block the tissues all around those little tubes with local but retraction of them (lifting them up) with an instrument which is necessary to cut them will transmit that little action upstream to your brain and that cannot be blocked. Thus cramping, uncomfortable pressure, etc ensues. It's one reason a spinal or epidural anesthetic in itself is not sufficient for any bowel surgery even an appendectomy though you may be numb as a stump from nipples down.

Getting snipped is the easy part. I had it done years ago with no issues. I'm 59 with no ED issues.
A friend of mine had it done and a couple of years later he and his wife decided they wanted a 3rd child. Putting it back together is much more difficult with less likely to work. He was in a lot of pain, but it worked.
Most people don't really want the truth.
They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.

Had it done about 20 years ago, it's an operation so yes there are POSSIBLE side effects, as with anything. They are rare.
My experience, done on a Friday morning. Spent the weekend on the couch icing per doctors orders. No discomfort/pain at all. Plus you get Doctors order to have sex after a week, need to clear out the already built up little critters before you're considered "safe", so more sex you have the faster you get to the "safe" point.
Only thing I remember is the tugging in my stomach, not pain, just not comfort, and one of the injections took my breath away for some reason.

I did it in 2002 in south Africa, he used a laser to cauterize one end. and I was awake and aware with a little bit of valium. No recovery time at all. Ready to function normally the same day and no pain whatsoever. I cannot imagine not doing this.
It was nothing, removing a bad sliver, or walking with a blistered heel is 100 times worse! Just do it, it's a no brainer!

It was about 25 yrs. ago when I had mine. The the nurse told me it was her first one. When I got the bill there was a mistake on it. I tried to correct them and was told billing did not make a mistake...best 12 bucks I ever spent...

There isn't anybody that "novocaine" -- usually lidocaine or xylocaine -- doesn't work on. If it "doesn't work" the guy injecting it is not using enough or in the right area which is actually not that uncommon among many doc's. Local anesthetic are really miracle drugs. Hence, go to somebody well-practiced and patient. Generally (not always) a general surgeon would be a better bet. Generally of course, not in every instance.
Actually, actual Novocain is chemically an ester and there are cholesterases in the blood such that it can render the drug (and any local anesthetic that is an ester) ineffectual as an anesthetic. Lidocaine, bupivocaine and the like are chemically amides and are unaffected by blood.
I can only speak from my own personal experience from dental and local surgeries (such as my vasectomy) that while the local anesthetics do work on me, it's just that I need a larger dose and longer time for it to take effect. My dentist has finally figured it out after the few times I've planked on him while getting a filling. Now he hits me twice and waits about about 30 minutes before he starts to work. Was the same thing with the vasectomy. The doc injected both sides. The first one was pretty sensitive. He hit the second side again before doing it and I didn't feel a thing. For some reason the dentists I had contact with back in the day did use Novocain, not the generic "novocain" but actually Novocain. I don't know if this was generational dental training or just my keyhole experience with a few of them. Anyway, as I mentioned Novocaine is an ester rendered ineffective as a local anesthetic by cholinesterases in the blood and the gums are highly vascular -- a lot of blood perfusing the area. That could be one reason for some of the unpleasant experiences in the dental chair in the golden, olden-days, or for that reason by anyone who was administered this drug in a highly vascular area. Maybe Hatari will chime in on this.
