Re: First Doctors Appt since implant surgery......

Same here got pumped up - not too pleasant an experience. Felt like needles in my scrotum. But like Dave said was over quickly, he then deflated and it was my turn. Never managed to keep hold of the slippery thing myself but in the end I got it.. As will you. Good luck and keep us up to date. Dave

Re: appearance after implant

I have the LGX and at 3 months after surgery it hangs at about 5 o'clock when flaccid. Temperature comes into it for me and on cold days it all changes. Although like Dave says you do have to make sure you have fully deflated. On the lump and bumps. I have seen other posts (can't find them now thoug...

Re: pumping problems

Same here tough to inflate to start and the discomfort always got the best of me - tried the two hand grip as well.

Like Dave suggested (he gave me the same advice I believe) a warm soak helps. Keep at it and all of a sudden it will give and you'll be away.

Re: the pumps comfort?

I am at Week 14 after surgery and as far as I can tell everything has settled, swelling gone etc. Perhaps I am lucky but I have to admit I do not even know the pump is there. When I'm warm everything hangs and it's no problem at all. When it's cold my scrotum draws in and still don't know the pump i...

Re: Driving a Vehicle?

Hi Ronn

I was back to driving within 5 days.. I have a manual gear change (stick-shift I think you call it). Although driving was no problem just be careful getting in and out, most of my discomfort came from my scrotum touching the edge of the seat as I got in and out!!

Re: Implant on 10/24/13 Nervous

Understand your nervousness and concerns. Even after plenty of research and questions answered I was exactly the same - until I got to the hospital. Once there I calmed down and let the doctors do what they are best at. I had my LGX700 surgery back in July and have not once regretted my decision. Fo...
