Re: Cabergoline for ED?

I used cabergoline 2x per week for many years and while it improved things marginally, it did not reverse or treat the ED. I finally quit taking it a few years ago and noticed no change. I received my implant in Feb after years of pills and then injections. I love my implant because when I need to u...

Re: Repair information

My reservore move was successful although there is a lot of “ puffy “ area now where the old lump was so from my view straight down I’m still uneven looking but that beats the tennis ball sticking out my abdomen. Still very sore at incision site, was supposed to be a small cut but I see a “T” cut a...

Re: Yet Another Journal

Great description of surgery day. The less you remember, the better. Mine went very well, as I have written, and it sounds like you are going to be happy with the results--and your partner as well. My last memory of the Operating Room is the nurse telling my to lift my gown and sit my naked bottom o...

Re: Yet Another Journal

Thanks for the pics--you have a very nice looking tool and if your results are like mine, it will finally work as intended after surgery. I am only three months after surgery, but everything feels normal and it works great. It is so freeing not to have to drag injectibles around to get erect. Stay i...

Re: How Many Pumps?

I think the best answer to this question, from all that I have read is: pump it until you are happy with the result. For sex, perhaps less pumps than cycling. Each of us is different and it appears that all of the variations of combinations of pumps and cylinders allow us to be very individualistic...

Re: Any uncomfortable activities with pump in scrotum?

So far, and I've been implanted for less than 3 months, only bike riding requires some planning and getting everything in the right place. I do have a bit more room in my scrotum than some because I had one testicle removed, due to prior damage, when the pump was installed.

Re: Prepping for Implant Day

Congratulations. Be excited--the surgery is life changing. Best advice is to follow your doctors orders. Each doctor is a little different. I know I followed my doctors orders for no aspirin, ibuprofen, and other blood thinning drugs for the week prior. I started washing from my chest to knees with ...

Re: Scheduled for implant in less then a week and kind of scared

Did any of you have trouble going to the bathroom post op because I read a lot on here many had issues with urination post op So the short answer is yes--but because of a few things. First, my penis was wrapped and I couldn't point it down. I quickly soaked the wrappings when I went while still in ...

Re: Implanted and working through recovery

It sounds as if you are doing great! Keep it up. I received my implant nine weeks ago today and I realized about a week ago it has become a normal part of my body. I don't think about it anymore except when using it or cycling. My biggest challenge right now is trying to determine how much to defla...
