Johnnyborg’s Malleable Journey

[JohnnyBorg]

Quick update: Hakky wanted me to go to a local pharmacy and pick up a drug that he prescribed which will make urination even easier. So I just went on my first public adventure since the nerve blockers have wore off

No one can see my very erect penis thanks to my big winter coat - but I’m DEFINITELY hobbling around since the pressure of it against the front of my pants (even my very loose pants) causes noticeable discomfort still at this stage.

But all in all, very proud and pleased of being able to get to the pharmacy and back without issue!

Great to read your experiences so thank you for sharing.

I had an inflatable but like you the recovery takes a while. The first week I didn't think I would ever be able to put clothes on again. The second week I didn't think I would ever be able to poop without bending myself into strange shapes. The third week I realised things were getting better. Each week things improved. I am sure they will for you too. It sounds like you're generally quite positive, which I think helps the body to heal more than people realise.

Thank you siltmonkey, I really appreciate it man! It’s a relief to hear I’m not alone in the recovery woes. I’m generally a positive person but I’m also a notoriously anxious person - so as you can imagine, I’m hyper sensitive right now of every little thing going on.

My hope is that slowly but surely, the implant just feels like a part of me. Right now, ironically, I really don’t notice the implant AT ALL because I’m so focused on the soreness / edema / swelling, etc. But I’m sure as soon as those things resolve, the next chapter will be “how do I get used to this medical device INSIDE MY PENIS”

But today, every so often, I pause and am reminded of the idea that in the near future, I could potentially be having sex again without fear of ED. Makes all this worth it.

You're still very early in the game. Soon the recovery will pick up and things will move along nicely.

Just thinking: I also had my procedure done during the winter and was covered by a coat when I had to go out the first few days. I have no idea what I would have done if I had to go out during the summer!

I’ve been thinking about this too Duke I think the answer would have to be a large, billowy 100% linen button up, completely untucked. Anthony Bourdain style. RIP

I seriously considered a kilt.
