An update on my bad luck.
First my very aggressive VED therapy no doubt "thinned my walls" as my URO #4 put it. Opened my chambers up as expected because they were very scarred and that usually means a bad outcome during dilation. Let me make it clear that had my tips been even as promised there would have been no problem. I ended up with the worst tip alignment possible and that has caused distal erosion and tip migration, so it seems. Had a ct scan today to confirm but my erection is corkscrewed and that seems to be the only explanation.
In the last weeks I went to uors #1, 2, 4, and new guys #6 and 7 with my tip problem. The night after surgery I discovered that my right tip was 1/4" higher than my left. I freaked because from years of research I knew that the #1 cause of distal erosion and distal penetration was uneven tip pressure. Since that day I have all but begged any doctor that would listen to help straighten my crooked penis. Well uro #1 called uro #4 my implanter a jerk because when I asked him for help he reached down straightened my penis and said, there it's straight. Uro #2 said I knew you could never be pleased I knew it was a mistake to see you we're done here and he walked out. Uro #6 offered no help for the tip but said let's wait a month and see on my unusable pump which by the way has now grown to my scrotum skin. Uro #7 was 300 miles away had me scheduled for a cysto scope took one look at me and cancelled it. Your tips are on the same side he said. How's that possible I asked they are both surrounded by a tunica. He drew a diagram that showed where the 2 meet there is no thick wall in between. My right tip pushed hard enough to tear down the division and my left tip came into the right side just below the other one. Dr Carrion is the pioneer for Fl implants. Still it bothers me that not one of the others even had a clue.
He told me that the chambers had to be rebuilt and that there would be 3 stages the last being fixing my pump. I asked him if he put in plastic chambers (hoping beyond hope) he replied let's confirm the problem first.
I already know what he is talking about. The implant would be removed (that will cost me a very very hard earned inch or more). I would be filleted like a fish top or bottom not sure and grafts would be used to rebuild my ruptured chambers. After months of healing the implant would then be replaced, last of all my pump and I would start all over again somewhat but not exactly like Larry. Instead of 6" I would have less than 5. An LGX would likely be out of the question. In the meantime probably no sex for 6 months or longer. And of course I''d probably lose my job. Maybe my house.
Guys I'm hoping that when I pick up my test results on Monday they show anything except for tip migration. If they do and if Dr Carrion says that the chances are 100% that without this operation one tip will eventually push through my skin then I will say goodbye to the Bionic brotherhood and just have it removed.
I had all of my bases covered had I not been lied to by the RN rep this would never had happened. I'm sure Dr Kramer would never have given me such uneven tips. You simply do not dilate completely until you measure and then you dilate enough to make them perfectly even.
The silver lining. Dr Carrion might be wrong. Right now that is my hope. I have an appt on the 17th. He will look over the ct and give me the very good news I hope. If not and if there is no immediate danger then I will ask him to schedule moving my pump asap and maybe sell my house downsize and retire. Next year I will consider having my chambers rebuilt. If he says I can't wait for that I'll schedule having him taking out the implant and maybe next year or the years following I'll consider doing this again. Maybe.

Re: Tip migration
DougAnd, you do not know how much this saddens me to read your post. Having been through several shit head anemic minded tactless urologist I understand what it is like to put up that crap and sorry you have too. I hope it is not what he thinks it is but Carrion has done a lot of this so I would think by now he knows and if memory serves me correctly, he is who AMS reps would refer patient to for fuck-up repairs. You are correct, I do not think Dr. Kramer would allow that out of the room and why a sales rep has anything to more than stocking a cabinet inventory is beyond my comprehension. Dr. Kramer came to my room and told me feel those tips. They are perfectly even! They were and he was proud of it. Now a suggestion
I may be wrong but I think there have been a couple of guys here that had tip erosion but not to the skin protrusion part and Dr. Eid fashioned a gortex sock over the end of the implant. I KNOW I've had the gortex sock discussion with members at any rate. Scar tissue grows into the gortex and make a new reinforced end for your implant. It would be well worth the $245 consultation fee with Dr. Eid to get on the internet or phone and ask once you get your scan results. Sending you a hug via electron transmission. Sounds like you need it. Cheers

Re: Tip migration
Alibaba,
That is a comforting possibility. Thank you so much. Expands my optimism.
Right now my mind refuses to accept any surgery. I may end up being the statistic that has a tip come out before I do anything. I am so praying that the ct does not change his opinion that I can safely live with it. If so I will gladly do that crooked penis and all. On the 17th time will tell the tale.

Re: Tip migration
Giving up is never an option. Affording is often a different matter. Hope you are insured. Think of it this way. As long as the implant has not protruded through the urethra nor the skin, it is still a sterile surgical field so it can be repaired. Once it breaks through, it is contaminated and virtually guarantees you are going to have go through removal, healing, clearing of bacteria and such, hopefully not as bad as Larry. There are surgeons that could fix it that are known for fixes that take what I would call old school methodology to do it in complex multi surgery deals ( or money generating and training sessions) and there are 2 who are innovative that I think you should at least talk to. One won't cost you to discuss it. At least pick their mind. You know who they are and I think both would give an honest opinion. When you pump up your penis, you cannot feel the point of the tip, one one each side of your urethra, right?
Just for the record for those who will mention Dr. Kramer has students, he insisted on not having a student in on my surgery. We went back and forth about that. I insisted on a student because I believe in education. He still did 99.8% of the work though. Cheers Doug.

Re: Tip migration
Remember, nobody can bury you. Stand on every shovel of dirt they throw in the hole and soon you will be eye level with them and can take their shovel away.

Re: Tip migration
Some one asked if my tips were side by side. Right now I am deflated 100% and it feels like the left tip is in the center of my penis near to top and the right tip is very much on the right side but way down at the bottom below my urethra and not on top of it. I'm still hoping that this is just very loose skin moving things around and not both tips inside of one chamber. But I'm not an expert so.....
