Re: A question about cycling

Lets spin this differently. Ok, so you don't cycle? If by chance later in time & you find out that not cycling was a huge mistake. How sure are you that cycling late in your recovery will fix an issue that arises if you hadn't of cycled from the beginning. I'm presuming that you don't have a tim...

Re: Ladies Thoughts

i was under the impression that the implant cut off blood flow to the shaft . That isn't the case for you ? is there a increase in girth when you're "in the mood"? There are two different blood supplies to the penis. One supplies the cavernous tissue(erection) that supply is destroyed dur...

Re: Has anyone worn or know the difference between the AMS LGX Vs the Coloplast titan in terms of rigidity?

It amazes me how this urban legend keeps coming back to life. Lets think for a moment. I think the key factor to rigidity is the pressure inside the implant. Despite the brand, the pumps are basically the same & Titan users do not have any inherent super hand strength. Lots of users of both bran...

Re: Ladies Thoughts

I have posted this before. My wife was the first to bring up an implant. To be exact she suggested it TWICE. She did get cold feet before my surgery. All she could see in her mind was that I might die during surgery. I proved her fears wrong. My dr generally has an appointment at 6 weeks post op whe...

Re: AMS: Tube near pump

Did you have your implant done intrapubic? Generally when someone posts about bunched up tubing. Odds are it was done thru the pubic fat pad. Although I do have to say its been awhile since someone has had this complaint. Maybe the drs got better at routing the tubing. Either way, you'll get used to...

Re: 4 weeks in

You need to fill out your signature line. Its difficult to give advice to someone that we don't know anything about their implant. Or how it was installed.

Re: Malleable repairment due to erosion

One less surgery & recovery. Is there any real benefit to two surgeries? I think most drs would relieve where ever the suspected spot is. Thus Dr Eids suggestion rings true in my mind.

Re: Help- Implant when Medicare kicks in this August

I'm locked into Aetna due to my pension. So I have an Aetna Advantage plan. To my knowledge my advantage plan qualifies as a "plan D" Medicare supplement. It does have a drug function to it but I've found that on some non generics it doesn't cover very well. On generics, it seems that Walm...
