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.'

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...

Re: Any success stories here with coping with strong ED sexual anxiety
There may be a corollary for the guys who have a RP for PCa and experience a sudden, and often total, inability to get an erection. The psych affect is profound. Search out some of the posts on RP and see if there's something that provides you a measure of support.
