I had a toenail removed a couple of years ago. The left "index" toenail. Had a nail fungus.

The foot doctor numbed up my toe, which hurt REALLY REALLY BAD to do. I now understand the whole bamboo-shoots-under-your-nails torture. I'd be confessing to everything including the Lincoln assassination if I ever have to have another foot procedure like that again.

Once he got everything numbed up, it was pretty easy and painless...finally.

My nail is starting to grow back, so he didnt get the entire nail bed. Hoping he got all the fungus tho. I dont want that back again. (mostly because I dont want to have to remove the nail again!)

I was pretty happy with the results once the nail was gone. I could go barefoot again without making people scream and run the other direction when they see my toes.
