Re: Simply cannot pump today

These are all signs of a sticky pump. The devices are made tight to last a long time. So with the tight tolerances every so often you will get one that is on the bit over tight side of things. Heat is the best help for this. I used a heating pad for my sticky pump and it worked great. I had the hea...

Re: My PT Surgery Progress...

Do you have problems with hand strength or dexterity? It can definitely take a strong squeeze to get it going the first pump sometimes No hand issues here. Damn good hand / finger strength. Even the URO, says it's difficult to depress, but will loosen up over time. We are at over 3 months. He, says...

Re: My PT Surgery Progress...

Well, the URO says the bulb/pump will soften up after time. I say, that's a bullshyt answer. I have yet to inflate this Implant or go through a cycle. He says, "The pump doesn't need to be replaced". I just can't imagine all you brothers are embedded with a stone pump. Maybe I was expectin...

Re: Cigna denied surgery for Clavell

You got stuck with an $89k bill


I too got an Implant insurance bill of $89k. But was covered. My problem.....It seems I paid for a Marble, Rock, or Stone for a AMS Pump, which I can't use. Not by Clavell.

Re: My PT Surgery Progress...

Still struggling.....It's been 3 months / 12 weeks. Pump still hard as a rock. I wanted to try some padded pliers to squeeze. But I have another URO follow in 2 weeks. Hopefully, I can get some real answers, as to why still pump is so hard. I hope I don't have to get a pump exchange. I was looking i...

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 set...

Re: My PT Surgery Progress...

I have looked for different pumps....So far I found three..... 1. AMS 700 Pump 2. Coloplast Pump - Titan Touch 3. Genisis Pump Since I think this AMS 700 pump is a defective hard azz hell uncomfortable pump. At my next URO appointment, I think I will discuss, what is the possibility of exchanging th...

Re: finally tomorrow the big day!

The operation should go OK. Everything will be straight forward.. The operation...OK. The healing process...OK. The Pump / Cycle.....That's when the shyt will hit the fan. Get as much info and doctor support before hand about this Pump / Cycle. My surgery went well and the process was good. But when...

Re: My PT Surgery Progress...

I have tried view several times of the Video......No Sound.......Only Video. The Pump / Cycle procedure seems to be something that is not easy to find or locate. Of all the Penile Implants Operational steps.....All were rather easy going, but the Pump / Cycle seems like it's a Top Secret Thing. Hard...
