I've got existing problems "Down there" - will a vasectomy make things worse?

Is it for me?
Post vasectomy pain syndrome (PVP) can be caused by undiagnosed problems that existed before the vasectomy. So yes, a vasectomy may make an existing problem worse. If you have certain conditions, vasectomy should be delayed until the problem is resolved. Some conditions may increase the risks, or make the operation difficult. You should discuss your medical history with your doctor, and any problems should be checked out.

Yes. If someone has hepatitis C, there are several things that can increase the likelihood that the virus will cause liver damage. Drinking alcohol (any amount) is very dangerous to a person who has hepatitis C since alcohol also causes liver damage.

Lying down soon after eating or exercising or bending on a full stomach also makes it much easier for food from the stomach to backflow into the esophagus.

Additionally, a subsequent rise in Estrogens (female hormones) and DHT (a male androgen causing hair loss and prostate problems), combined with LOW testosterone is the cause.

I've got this cool idea, will you make it?

Echo's SimStuff
Possibly, it depends on how cool I think it is. ;) The bad news for you is that I have a fair few ideas of my own already, so your idea needs to be fairly well thought out in advance. For example, what object would it be based on? What existing animations could be used for it? Which behaviours could I use to base the new behaviours on, and how much would they need to be changed. Creating entirely new objects with new behaviours take a *lot* of time, even if the modifications are simple ones.
