Malleable implant - The time has come

[Scott424]

After my consultation with Dr. Shaeer I tentatively scheduled a consultation and surgery 2 days later but decided to postpone as it was just a few days later and that was just too soon for me and airfares were more than double what I had seen before with more time before the flight. I also want to get back into the gym after my hand surgery and maybe lose 5-10 pounds of weight I have put on lately. To be honest I was also just tired of being consumed by this topic every day and needed a break.

I am heading back to California for a couple of weeks at the end of November and I am thinking I will reschedule the surgery for early to mid December (early Christmas present if you will). If I had enough money I would consider getting it done in the states but I do not think that would work out. Has anyone had a malleable implant with Peyronies repair in the states, if so what was the cost and which doctor did you use?

Ok, I finally have a target date. I kept hesitating to go to Egypt for a few of reasons including, the very long flights anywhere from 13-20+ hours depending on layover, the cost of the hotel they recommended was quite high and one thing Dr. Shaeer said was that I would not be able to shower for 12 days, which I have never seen before especially for a malleable implant. Anyways I just could not pull the trigger to go to Egypt.

I recently met a friend of a friend here in Thailand and he is going to India the first of December with Dr. Banga who I had a consultation with before. I have decide to go to India as well. I will fly in on Dec 1st, have a consulation on the 2nd and most likely surgery on the 3rd. I will only be in India for about a week. My new friend and I will be on the same flight to New Delhi so that will make it easier to start off, he is getting an inflatable implant so will stay in India a little longer than I will. I think I will try to start a new thread journaling my experience once I am in India or when I have returned. Wish me luck guys, I am soooo ready to get this over with.

I've heard great things about Dr. Shaeer and Dr. Banga. Both have placed thousands of implants. Good luck with your surgery, Scott. I would personally choose Dr. Shaeer for Coloplast Genesis and Dr. Banga for Rigicon Rigi10 or Promedon Tube malleables.

Thanks Lasthope, I plan to get the Rigicon.

Thanks Kodixx, it all seems a little surreal at the moment.

Hey Scott! Best of luck - if you decide to keep a journal here on your implant, I look forward to reading about it.

wait till you get to India ,for the surreal thing ,hahahaa
not to discourage you ,but it's way different there , the cows popping out from between cars , that is a surprise . For food i found a burger king , first i ordered a hamburger and the response was ,
no sir, not available . Me; oh out of stock? oh the sacred cow thing , right right.
So got a chicken sandwich and fries . Boy , i don't know what spices they put on both, but that was the best chicken sandwich AND fries ever .
And ordering food in the hotel was the same result , delicious . They have cooking with spices down pat . But finding other places to eat at, out walking down the street was a fail .
Best wishes on your malleable , and a quick recovery .
my own was very easy . i did take the pain meds and the others . And had really no pain except for the sensitive glans , that lasted for about 1 month
peeing, though , i had to basically push it out for a few months .
Other than that, the recovery was just a waiting game for the incision to heal and stitches dissolve .
have you applied for the entry visa ? That's required to have in hand to
enter india .
im sure your implant will go well ,it's nowhere near as complicated and involved as the ipp .
