Re: Titan sharp cylinders at base in flaccid state

I am so glad to read this post. That is exactly how mine look also. I thought my doctor did a bad job and that's why they look that way. My question is, where the cylinder protrudes do you feel a layer of tissue (the corpus cavernosa?) covering it between the cylinder and the skin of your penis? My ...

Re: Where is your pump located?

In front of my right testicle nestled snugly in the right bottom corner of my scrotum. Easy to get to and pump.

Re: Titan Early Failure

Just to let others know, if you have this happen to you, here is what my surgeon's assistant recommended. Press the release button and squeeze your cock (well, she probably didn't say cock) REAL hard to force all the air and saline out. Then try pumping. You may have to do this a few times. I did an...

Re: What does a penile implant cost?

I am amazed at how "cheap" some of the procedures are. I know they seem incredibly expensive, but I had mine done in September in Chicago. When the final hospital bill came it was near $60,000. The implant itself was near $32,000. At first, due to some wording in my referral (I have an HMO...

Re: Titan Early Failure

Charlesr, Thanks for your post. This makes me feel a bit hopeful. My surgeon's assistant called me back today and suggested exactly what you suggested. If it doesn't work, I am to come in and they will see exactly what is happening. I am worried that since my penis hangs differently from most men, t...

Titan Early Failure

I got my implant on Sept. 24. I had a severe congenital curvature with venous leak. I was able to get erections and stay hard unless I tried penetration. Trying to maneuver it into place (it was down and to the right) would make me lose some of the erection. I tried Viagra which seemed to work, but ...

Re: Coloplast Titan pain

Does anyone get pain in the scrotum from the deflation button portion of the pump? Not the bulb part but the portion just above, the square portion? It's been almost 3 months and I still get soreness and pain from what feels like the sides "scraping" the inside lining of my scrotum. For a ...

Re: Ongoing scrotal pain

The other day the pain was getting so significant after a whole day of "scraping" the sides of my scrotum. I went home and felt around down there after someone on here mentioned that the pump may need to be relocated. I was surprised that I could maneuver the deflate button section to a sl...

Re: Ongoing scrotal pain

Hard drive, The only problem is, that I needed a special referral to get this doctor and due to an incorrect wording in the referral, I am having issues getting the initial surgery covered. So I am not sure, I could get my insurance to cover the cost of another surgery if indeed they agree to pay fo...

Ongoing scrotal pain

It's been 8 weeks since my surgery. I still get a lot of scrotal pain. Feels like the part where the inflation/deflation device scrapes against the sides of the top part of the scrotal sack and can feel pressure when I sit from the tubing going up from the inflation device to the implants. I'm wonde...
