Re: AMS Tenacio pump
That is unfortunate. The AMS has a Momentary Squeeze (MS) pump with a one-way “poppet” valve (search for "poppet" on this forum for more info) has problems. I am 7 weeks out from surgery, and the poppet valve is not working properly (cannot squeeze the pump -- the pump is hard as a rock)....

AMS Tenacio pump
For those wondering about it, I talked to my AMS support person about the new pump. She told me while it has been approved it still has to go through more testing and study trials before final FDA approval and more widespread use. So looks like it will be more than year or so before it gets out to t...

Re: bought an expired AMS CX online
I have a question, on my 700cx I can feel the tips and it is harder than the cylinders. But I also feel part way down from the tips a harder area, it's like a for lack of a better word, a sleeve area around the cylinder. So I have the harder tips and part way down a "sleeve" that's the sam...

Re: Broken again?
Well of course I'm screwed. My Drs office called, since insurance hasn't paid they are releasing his surgery costs, not really too bad but that makes his bill around $4500. So I'm off the schedule until it's paid off. Talking to her about the insurance, it appears the insurance told my Dr, the Hospi...

Re: When you Go to ipp surgery What is the "cause" What you say to your boss at work???
Personally me and my manager are on great terms and have the same kind of humor. He asked what surgery I was having and said he was just being nosy and I didn't need to answer if I didn't want to. I just flat up told him I'm getting a implant so I can pump it up and let the wife ride me all night......

Re: Broken again?
Still awaiting surgery info from Dr's office. But I was feeling around down there and might have figured out what went wrong. I was trying to follow the tubing from the pump with my fingers, which is difficult due to the pump and the boys being in the way. But while feeling a long one of the lines I...

Re: Important considerations for picking your surgeon and after surgery support
Great info. I was lucky in that I had been doing research on implants when I starting taking Trimix just in case Trimix didn't work for me just like the other treatments. My Dr pretty much answered most of those questions during the consult before I asked about them. Any competent Dr will not take o...

Re: Lifespan of IPP
Hey John sorry to hear that . I’m not in fear shape either . I was wondering do strictures have to be fixed before the implant surgery ? My Dr fixed my last stricture before my implant surgery, which makes sense as it's very hard to place a catheter with one. I was trying to get the implant done ar...

Re: High volume Surgeon ?????
Luckily for me my surgeries went ok. Of course my scrotum did swell up about the size of a grapefruit and looked like it went 10 rounds with Mike Tyson. But as far as them being painful getting in and out of bed I didn't have to deal with that, but man they felt like they weighed a ton and trying to...
