    Ugh, reminds me of my drain removal after top surgery, and those suckers were nearly the diameter of a pencil eraser.

      So the surgery I was talking about was for an aggressive thyroid cancer that had spread. The bonus to the stitch removal was the two drain lines they had to pull from my neck. At least those were more of a dull tugging, but I could feel the line slide across my throat. Yuck.
