Re: SHOW & TELL

I'm in Calgary, Canada. I just had my implant September 20th. I'll be happy to meet anyone in the area.

WTF did I do that phase and how did you deal with it

I'm currently 11 days post op for implant of my LGX 700. The healing process is going fine. However, I started to get into the "WTF did I do to myself?" phase. All of a sudden now I long to the injection days, blah blah. Just wondering, Is this normal? and how did you deal with it? Thank you

Re: Has anyone had a Titan put in them by Dr.Brock?

I do not know about Dr. Brock, but I'll make a general comment based on my readings. When dealing with a low volume surgeon (other than the 2 big ones), it is better to let the surgeon work with the model or the manufacturer that he or she are more familiar with. Most of the low volume surgeons do o...

jackhammerdreamz,

Make sure you get all the male hormone panel as well as thyroid: Total Serum Testosterone, Free Testosterone, DHT, E2, LH, FSH, TSH, T4, T3, SHBG, Prolactin, DHEA-S, Serum Cortisol.
That's in addition to other tests related to diabetes.

Re: long time reader, first time poster. Introduction story!

jackhammerdreamz, your story sounds familiar. I was in denial all my youth time regarding my ED as it was on and off. Almost exact symptoms, I cannot maintain erection. Some times I get really hard on and sometimes not. That continued into my marriage, and as we could not conceive, I went though ext...

Re: Eight Weeks Post Implant

She believes that the implant is against "the will of God". :x Regardless of her opinion, I went ahead with the implant and I'm telling everyone about it. For the next few weeks, I'll be working on re-igniting the romance. ED made me avoid kissing her or getting close to her to avoid emba...

Please only answer if you have direct knowledge.


The simple answer is yes, but all look-ups are logged and can be traced and must be justified if challenged.

Re: Eight Weeks Post Implant

Hang in there my friend. My wife is the same. She believes that the implant is against "the will of God". Really, give me a break. Now, as I'm in pain within my first week post-op, I'm getting the "I told you so" never ending nag.

Re: glans penis after implant

Hi Jackhammer (great handle btw). I too researched for weeks on the topic of implants which led me to this forum. My surgeon has nowhere near the experience of some of the docs I hear mentioned on here. There aren't many (if any) experts in Canada and there was no way I could afford US$20,000 or mo...

Re: Question on inflation during procedure

Thank you Gentlemen for your replies.
So do you think it should be ok to stay that way at almost flaccid state until 3 weeks post op? or do you recommend that I contact my doctor and expedite the appointment to pump it more?
