Re: Boston Scientific wins FDA approval for penile prosthesis pump
I spoke with the patient advocate on the Boston Scientific phone line yesterday. She said the pump has been released to a select group of surgeons, but is not yet widely available. Also, she said she didn't believe this new pump could be "swapped out" for the old-style pump without a revis...

Re: Ams700 implanted guys
I just got my 5-month checkup and have to get minor surgery to fix the tubes on one side too. The tubes and pump are adhered to my scrotum, and have been painful on my left side from the start. I'm waiting until I can get the new AMS pump. I'd love to have a different/better pump. I only find the d...

Re: Ams700 implanted guys
The AMS 700 operation overall process and parts worked out well. But my concerns, is the pump. I think their pump is made or ceramic material. It's a rock or a stone. Nothing flexible about the pump. It would be great if the pump was flexible or easier to pump. It's like you need vise grips of a se...

Re: AMS 700 cx pump is sutured so high it’s touching the shaft…
I have the same problem with AMS LGX, 18cm with 4cm rear tip extenders. PA said surgeon may consider a minor surgery to correct placement. It’s high and a hard nut where my right one should be. It pushes the real guy back into my body. The surgeon mentioned it before, before I had a complaint. I see...

I got this, but it seems the opening is too narrow. I wonder if it expands enough. What is your experience with that?

Re: My 3rd testicle
Someone recommended taking Ibuprofen and Tylenol together plus wrapping the scrotum with a layer of gauze and then bandaid tough wrap wound tape. It works for me, makes a huge difference. For support I wear boxer briefs. At first, all I was taking was the Tylenol and the Vicodin. The first day of t...

Re: Swollen scrotum
I feel like I was the poster child for swelling. And my doc said he had seen worse. It subsided a lot by six weeks, but then came back about 50% after four flights in a few days. PA said it could have been all the changes in pressure. It does eventually go away. If you have an advantage, you know th...
