The Waiting is The Hardest Part

[Courage]

Almost four weeks out from the re-do. Leaving the thing alone as much as possible. Every little soreness or tickle or shadow on the incision gets me worried after my first experience. I did work myself into a scare a week or so ago. The doctor calmed me down. I'm doing my best not to bother him too much.

Mentally this has been rough. In retrospect, I'd have gone to my second surgeon first. Or maybe just accepted the problem. Don't know--I understand numbers and accepted them. Not going to bitch too much. Wish I could find the easy button though!

Waiting til 6 weeks (week before follow-up) to ask about cycling. Have my fingers crossed here.

You got this man. Everything's gonna turn out great this time. Good luck.

As I understood it your peak of risk for infection is significantly less than 4 weeks, no? You’re gonna be fine, brother, just a few more weeks and you’ll be making up for last time. And in a few months it will be the greatest dick ever.

Thanks, man. Not sure about peak--my understanding was before 3 months. Things went to shit first time at about 7 weeks--cleared to cycle on Thursday, in surgery on following Tuesday. Three months is what I have my head geared to.

Anyway, read your exploits. You're an inspiration!

Hey Courage, popping in to say “hang in there”! I had my first consultation around getting an implant last week - the consultation alone made me anxious and hopeful at the same time… so I’m sure those kinds of feelings are dialed up for you by 1000 right now while you’re recovering. We’re all rooting for you man!!

Courage, hang in there and best wishes for a successful and fast recovery !
