Yes I had this done a few years ago. Was expecting to be back flying after 48 hours due to anaesthetic but it didn't work out quite like that. Back home after surgery was fine, walking around without a care in the world. Next day.... oh dear.... heavily bruised to the extent that I looked like a different ethnicity.... walking around like I had been riding a horse for 24 hours... to be honest it ached like you wouldn't believe. I guess the surgeon had been a bit rough as my son had previously had the same surgery and his parts didn't change colour... I had also upset the surgeons secretary a few days before so maybe that was the cause? However a week later fine.. and was back flying then. Was it worth it..... well I was pretty fed up walking around with a swollen achy nut for years and it cured that so yes would be my answer.
