Spoke with the surgeon this AM, and yes, he did stitch the pump to the scrotal wall. I have an appointment with him tomorrow, and I'll ask his reasons for doing so.

Friday 28 Nov Day 29 Today has been a rough day. It’s as if someone kicked my scrotum, the pain remains all day even after ibuprofen. Cause? I figured it had to do with the continuing tightness of the scrotum, thinking it might be due to cold. SO I tried a hot bath, and the scrotum felt nice, not m...

I remember seeing one member write that his pump was stitched to the scrotal wall till the doctor needed to start pumping. I don't remember who wrote this, but I was wondering whether others of you have had a similar experience? I'm just past 4 weeks and the pump is high in the scrotum, right under ...

Wednesday 26 Nov Day 27 Generally things were OK. At one point, due to being cold, the sac tightened up and there was some leakage. After a hot shower the problem went away. Thursday 27 Nov Day 28 4 week anniversary All seems ok, no leakage by 1500 even being cold. Pain or discomfort location updat...

A handsome young lad went into the hospital for some minor surgery, and the day after the procedure a friend stopped by to see how the guy was doing. His friend was amazed at the number of nurses who entered the room in short intervals with refreshments, offers to fluff his pillows, make the bed, gi...

Monday 24 Nov Day 25 / Tuesday 25 Nov Day 26 Had a tiny leak in the early AM, but then nothing. The pump is still tight under the main guy but otherwise all seems sort of loose-normal. Still a bit tender as I walk but no pain. The main guy is still a bit sensitive, but that could also be due to the...

Friday 21 Nov Day 22 After being up about an hour or so, reached down and felt dampness so I change and put on a pad. See if that works at stopping it. If I still have this leakage over the weekend, I’ll buzz my surgeon. Heck, if the stitches have healed, why is there and how can there still be lea...

Have to ditto Zac. I had the scrotal cut along with the trim, a sort of "two-fer," and I'm glad. Still too early for me to test drive, but the scrotal approach worked for me. Plus, my lower abdomen got a lot of holes when they performed a robotic prostatectomy 3 years ago. S maybe that was...

Tuesday 18 Nov Day 19 Went out for a short walk to the local grocery, and by the time I got home had to change my clothes because of more leakage. Made the change, went out for more errands with no further leakage. Very selective it seems. The scrotum seems closer to normal, riding a bit high with ...

You're a terrific guy and example. Thanks for your support, and I'm looking forward to emulating your success and joy.
