The voyage of being implanted by Fred V2

Postby fredgermanholes » Thu Dec 09, 2010 12:46 pm

Well 5 years ago after many disappointments, facing how good dates ended in a terrible nights just because little me did not work out. I tried don't drink to much, not eat too much, not anything too much... I did not understand why my erections were so flaccid in that time and not as firm as before. I remember the time when little me was always ready for any formal or informal meeting.. Actually some times he was ready before I could be thinking about it, embarrassing at those times with the girls.... But I did not have to think or not if the outcome would be good or not because always were good. Well,,,,, almost always, the issue I faced was how my friend liked to finish so quickly letting me without tools in the middle of the race.

Good memories , LOL. The first appointment with a doctor I received a a Viagra prescription, and to be honest I did not come back to any doctor for a year because the success of my sexual life was huge. I thought everything was fixed, but it was not. The pills were stop working or were less effective, then I had a second appointment this time with a sexual urologist he gave me a prescription of Cialis & levitra, & of course he said we have to know what was happening to me...

In that way I met my Psychologist a great who spent with me many hours many days taking my money (I did not accepted any medical plan), he is really a good guy, with his help I learn to use the pills in a better way, I learn to talk about my issue with my girlfriend and face the true in a different way.

After some months my psychologist decided my problem was physical so, the urologist performed a test and the diagnostic was Venous Leak. With that information I visited Tom Lue in USFC, he is the best guy to decided ig the venous leak can be fixed or not. Dr Lue did to me a Color Duplex Ultrasound and Cavernosogram, the diagnostic? Many smalls Venous leaks making surgery very difficult and with not great % of be fixed.

Thus my journey with injections started while my venous leak was increasing. I tried Caverject, Ohhh that hurts guys,, finally after many tries The only way I could get erections were Trimix & Cialis used together.. for almost 6 months I could get erections for 20 to 30 min or so... But as all treatments made before... my leak were each time bigger and bigger making the injections not a good outcome. That made me jump to the final frontier. THE IMPLANT

Well I have talked about implant with more people in different groups than i could imagine, reading about wich implant could be the best.. I think the decision which one was easy... three piece inflatable, the best outcome and with not visible to the people ... The next... Which Brand and Model..? Coloplast - TITAN or AMS LGX, I think now those are the best on the market today (Just my understanding) each one with some pros and cons.

I'm have been implanted with an AMS LGX. have been just 4 days since. I'm feeling soreness and the little me is against my belly just as the DR Said. My area is swelled and Im partially inflated. I think the length now is not more than 2' o 3' I have heard from others guys that it could be normal given that initial outcome will be visible after the six weeks, and the next 18 months it will continue expanding.

My testicles are huge maybe twice or triple than before I feel the pump and it hitch with my leg and make feel a little pain.. I don't want to move o do anything before my DR says.. I'm relax waiting the days goes.. I'm also have taking my pills for pain & infection.. I following the DR recommendation walk. But i'm walking as a baby with a diaper. LOL

People were asking me about the procedure, so let me talk about it. I arrived at the hospital at 11:00 AM, Some documents were completed and some blood test were done, meanwhile i enjoyed some tv programs in a room. The surgery started at 1:30 PM and finished @ 3:00 PM. Around 5:00 PM the doctor came to the room and told me that everything was as expected and let me go. A person was waiting for me and drive me to 10 Minutes to hotel. The next day after surgery I had an appointment with the doctor, where he took off some gauze and the catheter. It caused me a little pain but less than i was expecting. Some people here have said this is the worst part. Well not in my case.

After I left the medical center I took a 6 hours travel were i was sleeping while a friend was driving me to home. Basically easy given that i was taking my pills. Today 4 days after surgery the area is changing from blue color to some more dark, and other areas more green. I hope in some 4 or 5 days be without those black spots.

By mistake I create two topics forums with the same name, After I could not delete them. Well Today is Friday Im feeling very very well, The soreness in my scrotum still there but as many of you have told me in some time I would not remember the implant is there.. I'm focus in recovery, that means that only good things i have been thinking of. HAHAHAHA

Well for them who asked me which doctor did the Surgery. It was Dr Gerard Henry in Shreveport LA. Even i visited Tom Lue in SF I chose Gerard because it has more experience in Implant that Dr Lue. Dr Lue I think is the best DR for Venous Leak Surgery. (Just My opinion).

The decision DR was not easy but at the end I was choosing between DR Gerard Henry & DR MIlan. Why I chose Dr Henry.. mmm Im not sure yet hehehee..

Guys, have been two weeks since my implant. The soreness and swelling almost disappeared, I Just feel a little pain when I walk more than 10 or 15 minutes.. but to be honest is easily supportable. I can fell and touch the pump. It is just behind my right testicle. I was expecting to see a third ball as other have referenced here, but the true that is not visible at all. I have tested the way to pump it up, and the way to deflate. I am ready to the six week appointment.

I still washing my area with antibacterial soup, just in case. Stitches are visible I do not yet how long will take before these disappear. My penis semi inflated is maybe around 3 inches long. Guys who have had the LGX implanted before once you pump it in the six week did you see an increase in size?

Ohh I can touch my tubes, I just feel some bulge or bend in the tubes is that normal?

Hi, On 1/19/11 will be the day when they will inflate mind at Vanderbilt. Right know, I am wearing inexpensive sweat pants with a good supporter. It pays to take it a little easy, surgery is surgery. Keep us up to date on how everything goes. I am glad to hear the recovery is going good for you.

Take care,
George

Hi guys, This week is the activation for my mechanic toy. Before to do that I have a couple of questions for all of you who have been through this before.

1. I have the AMS-LGX (21Cm+2ext) and my penis now is 3 3/4 sized before initial activation I guess after activation could get 4 or 4 1/4 length.
The Question is... the 20% on increase over the next 18 months is based on the size before or after the activation?



2. I have been touching my penis, just to get used to it. I can feel the right tube just a little into the glands than the left. It is not visible, noticeable only touching the tubes.
Is it normal? What can happen the activation day?
