Pre Op w/ Eid. Not happy

[Lawrence13]

Had my pre op with Eid today. Surgery set for two weeks from now. Can’t say I left the meeting very confident. I’m actually not happy at all.

Now maybe I misinterpreted his vibe but he basically made it sound like he wasn’t confident in how it’s going to go. His enthusiasm was low.

Said with 7 inch length but only 4.7 girth and left side scar tissue I’m kind of in between cylinder sizes and rough to predict. Will almost certainly have to give me RTE’s because their no way my anatomy can fit cut down 24 cm cylinders.

Said it’s going to be a wait and see approach. He will have two separate implants ready to go. So basically I’m going to wake up with either a Titan or an AMS which he admits he hasn’t done many of the last 15 years.

1. 22cm Titan is the absolute widest cylinder he thinks I can handle/fit but may not be long enough so will need rte. Also said with my small girth it’s going to be very painful for 4 months or more and I will have significant dog ears. I tried the pump and it’s disgustingly noisy. I cannot imagine hooking up with a girl and hearing that noise. Said it is my best chance to gain some girth.

2. Ams CX. 21 cm with double rte. if he can’t fit the Titan. Will hurt less but may wobble. Unlikely to give me girth gains. Will break sooner.


When I asked him what he recommends based on my anatomy he was basically just like “shoulder shrug”. He’d lean Titan but isn’t sure it will fit. So yeah I’m feeling pretty shitty right now. The king of coloplast can’t even make me feel confident about his preferred device. Also sounds like I’m in for a miserable experience either way…. Which I’d be willing to endure if my surgeon was confident in my case.


Edit: He was great at my prior visits and calls. But seemed not into it today. Now maybe it was a bad day or maybe he didn’t like my questions both of which I could look past, but im afraid he’s realizing he isn’t loving my actual surgical profile.
