Re: Retired: Livin' the Bionic Life

I have had several surgeries in the past for varies replacement parts. :D I have been able to drive after the customary 24 hours wait due to anesthesia. Has anyone had problems driving after getting their implant due to pain or other things? I am at T-3 days for my implant and would like to drive h...

Re: Inflation Pain

Right...so just be patient. You'll know your body. I honestly see progress every few days, it seems like. It's fairly incredible to me, some of the physicians who start with the very early, almost immediate cycling protocols. There's still so much edema and turmoil everywhere down there. I couldn't ...

Re: Inflation Pain

Just want to hear from you guys and your experience with inflation and any pain or not. I am post op day 11 and when I try to inflate to max there is a lot of pain / discomfort in the tips so I can’t get to max inflation as I know I can still squeeze the bulb if I needed to. Is this normal to feel ...

Re: Things that have changed (4 months and one weel post surgery)

At one level, I can relate to what you're going through somewhat, because currently my new flaccid state of affairs is fairly semi-rigid still at 9 weeks. This is a combination of, I think, Titan cylinders just simply being large and with more natural rigidity, and also a function of my ongoing chal...

Re: Penis Version 2.0 - Ongoing Journal

Barrylandon, I had an IPP placed by Dr. Levine and his current fellow on Dec 23rd last year. So I am about 4 weeks out from surgery, and so far I have nothing but good things to say. Some bullet points: • I had some strong pain after surgery that lasted a day or two. This was easily controlled with...

Re: Penis Version 2.0 - Ongoing Journal

Thanks for the additional information, stephen54. I sincerely appreciate you taking the time to help out a newbie. I'm more of an average length and girth kind of guy but was blessed with a oversized, battering ram (haha) glans head! (Mother nature can be so fickle!) So, I'm guessing that an AMS de...

Re: Penis Version 2.0 - Ongoing Journal

Dr. Levine's name keeps popping up on the posts I've been reading lately. I will love to hear input from Dr. Levine's patients, especially Overall Satisfaction? Communication skills? How many implants he does in a typical year? Does he prefer AMS or Coloplast prostheses? Does he ever use RTEs? Anyt...

Re: First shot, disappointed

I've placed a lot into the penile injections working. Without detail, I was celibate for over 15 years with the belief that I would be single for the rest of my life. Therapy changed my outlook and I dated and now I have a girlfriend. She knows all about my health issues. We agreed to try injection...
