Re: Fadogia Agrestis
I strongly second Lost Sheep's words! And be aware that there can still be circulating cells in the lymph nodes. After RP your desired /target PSA is 'almost undetectable.' Talk with your Doc about some routine post-op PSAs - trend for awhile and follow their advise on the use of testosterone supple...

Re: New too this - Glad im finally doing something
Yes - there's hope!! The treatment options for ED, no matter it's cause, are constantly improving. From oral to topical to injectable meds, pumps and rings, implants of different kinds, behavioral health counseling, sex surrogates. And don't underestimate the amazing power of, and your need for, an ...

Re: implantation and weight at work
I sure hope not!! Now 3 years post implant and have been carrying 40 - 50 lbs regularly since about 2 - 3 months after surgery - and I sure enjoy more than a glass of wine once in awhile (for medicinal purposes only ). Hope others chime in with their experience...

Re: Need help with maybe stuck AMS LGX pump...
I've had my AMS LGX almost 3 years and handle the pump 5 - 6 days a week. I always press the deflate button first - then do a quick squeeze to start inflating (and hear / feel the 'pop' previously described). Hope that might work for you. Otherwise - you may have success calling AMS and talking with...

Re: My PT Surgery Progress...
You might benefit from a conversation with an AMS rep - possibly even the one who helped with the implant procedure. They've been through many similar situations and can offer suggestions for 'easing the transition.'

Re: Supra pubic fat mound reduction
That area is particularly stubborn - sometimes called 'the last to go.' More attention to your abdominal muscles' fitness may be helpful. Congratulate yourself for losing 30#s - and continue till you reach your target weight - along the way your should see some improvement. You can also talk with yo...

Re: How to deal with the depression pre-implant?
Thanks for being honest with yourself - it's a great start when we 'call it what it is.' Yes - depression is somewhat common when you've had ED for any length of time - you're not alone in that category. If you've been considering the value of some counseling - try it. You'll have the benefit of hav...

Re: Make the swelling go away?! Advice?
Ice and elevation (laying down vs sitting) are your best friends right now. If you have a large scrotum (hanging testicles) a jock strap should be helpful. You're also on the cusp of being able to use some heat (warm - not hot bath) but recommend you contact Clavell or staff for more specific guidan...
