Re: Partner struggle and Divorce
I have many thoughts about this, but here is a very brief random sampling. 1) a happy long term marriage does much much better if sex is happening when desired. Sex builds intimacy and playfulness. Take sex out of the marriage, and things go stale (for me, the implant kept sex very alive in my marri...

Re: Real flaccid look
that is a beautiful look in those shorts. After a year, things do loosen up and as you get better at deflating, you can hide it so that it will not look like that in shorts. For me, if you wear tight underwear that holds the penis solidly, then you will not look like that. That being said, I do have...

Re: Infrapubic/penoscrotal healing and revisions
i spoke to my surgeon the other day during an appointment....he has a strong opinion that penoscrotal is far better because tubing will not have to drape arund the base of the penis (remember, with infrapubic, tubes come out from the top of your shaft, so they might be felt by the partner during sex...

Re: Depression and an Implant
i was depressed, to a mild degree, before implant because i had bad erectile dysfunction which was getting in the way of enjoying a vigorous sex life. Now with the implant, sex life is great, and in turn, because of the way my psyche is wired, a solid sex life means a solid overall outlook on all of...

Re: Implant After Radiation
yes it is ok to have implant after radiation. I strongly reommend that you makae an appointment with your implant surgeon anad ask for his advice regarding whether implant should go first or radiation first. Personally, I would get the implant now, and then have the radiation wait a few months.....a...

Re: Life span on implants
I very much agree with everything lost sheep has said. Coloplast and Titan are both great implants. What is far more important than the implant manufacturer, is the ability of your surgeon to get the device installed perfectly. In other words, your satisfaction as a customer will depend 90% on how g...

Re: Upcoming MRI scan on my shoulder. Will they need to be informed about my Implant?
I went to get a prostate MRI today, and I thought you should know about things you can do to make the MRI experience go better. I discuss all this in my implant pamphlet mini-book here on franktalk essentially, the advice is: 1) bring the letter from coloplast or AMS which states that the implant is...

Re: Easiest way to come up with $20k
try doing a gofundme donation page....you can find more by doing an internet search with the key term gofundme.
Please note, I have never done this, and I have no idea how it works, but it seems like an option that people desperate for medical bill handling sometimes turn to.

Re: What is the chance that a woman encounters a man with implant ? (IE, are we one in a million?)
i just had an mri scan, and the MRI tech had a little trouble with figuring out what to do with me since I had a penile implant, but, because I came with the letter from coloplast stating that it is safe for MRI even at 3 Tesla magnet strength, and since I had the surgery report showing that I had c...
