Headache and testicles

Joe had suffered from really bad headaches for the last 20 years.

He eventually decides to go and see a Doctor. The Doctor says, ‘Joe, the good news is I can cure your headaches.

The bad news is that it will require removing your testicles.
You have a very rare condition, which causes your testicles to press on your spine and the pressure creates one hell of a headache.
The only way to relieve the pressure is to remove the testicles.’

Joe is shocked and depressed. He wondered if he had anything to live for.

He had no choice but to go under the knife. The surgery cost him £15,000.

When he left the hospital, he was without a headache for the first time in 20 years, but he felt like he was missing an important part of himself.

As he walked down the street, he realized that he felt like a different person. He could make a new beginning and live a new life.

He saw a Men’s clothing store and thought, ‘That’s what I need… A new Suit.’
He entered the shop and told the salesman, ‘I’d like a new Suit.’

The elderly Tailor eyed him briefly and said, ‘Let’s see… size 44 would fit fine.
Joe laughed, ‘That’s right, how did you know?’
‘Been in the business 60 years sir!’ the tailor said.

Joe tried on the suit it fitted perfectly.
As Joe admired himself in the mirror, the salesman asked, ‘How about a new shirt?’

Joe thought for a moment and then said, ‘Sure.’
The salesman eyed Joe and said, ‘Let’s see, 34 sleeves and 16-1/2 neck.’

Joe was surprised, ‘That’s right, how did you know?’
‘Been in the business 60 years sir.’
Joe tried the shirt and it fitted perfectly.

Joe walked comfortably around the shop and the salesman asked, ‘How about some new Underwear?’
Joe thought for a moment and said, ‘Sure..’

The salesman said, ‘Let’s see….. size 36.
Joe laughed, ‘Ah ha! You got it wrong this time! I’ve worn size 34 since I was 18 years old..’

The salesman shook his head, ‘You can’t wear a size 34 sir. A size 34 would press your Testicles up against the base of your spine and give you hell of a Headache.’

PRICELESS?

Always take second opinion before accepting or taking any decisions. Your decision might never be reversible.
Food for thought!!!
