Re: Questions

Have the implant and deal with the prostate problems if the happen. If you get prostate cancer they will probably not be going near your implant. Prostate Cancer kills, a screwed up implant can be fixed. Best of luck my Bionic Brother to be.

Re: Insurance Excludes Penile Implant - Not Sure What to Do

I had my implant at the end of March. All out of pocket. Do a search for Surgeo. I used them, they offer sweet deals, beyond excellent service and reasonable prices with top surgeons.

I have a lot of extra bionic parts from when a Caddie tried to eat my Harley back in the 70's. My thoughts.... better to be patte...

Re: Scrotal swelling

Scrotal swelling is very common, especially this early on. Ice and some good scortal support will help as should the ibuprofen. Staying well hydrated with water will also be a benefit. Congradulations on the implant and welcome to the Brotherhood.

Unfortunately due to some intra-operative issued not related to the implant, I won't see the MD until the 6 weeks mark to follow up on those issues.

Re: Piddlin is now Bionic

Finally made it to day 12. Took the catheter out this past Monday; boy am I glad that is gone. Everything seems to look natural except for the lingering bruising on my lower abdomen. On thing I did notice, the pump is a little difficult to reach when the scrotum is contracted. Also I find the skin n...
