system and atrocious doubts

[ThailandBound]

ok guys, the decision is made, you have been very convincing, tomorrow at 14 I get on the plane and Monday after 12 it will be my turn, I chose my surgeon from the first moment, and that was, I have not consulted anyone else, I hope I have chosen well

Frank,

I have gone through this alone. I don't know if you have a supporting partner, but if you do, that will probably make things much better for you. I'm separated (for over a year) and in the final stages of a divorce. So, I went to Houston alone (and i can see you're traveling too), and underwent everything....the day-prior registration, the surgery, a few nights in a hotel post surgery, alone.I flew home alone. And i've been recovering at home alone. But you know what? I didn't feel alone. I turned to this forum frequently because i wasn't so proud to say couldn't use a bit of support and help here. So, these posts from anonymous guys from who-knows-where, their words of encouragement and support, were invaluable. I was alone physically, but i didn't feel alone because of the forum.

And as you can see from the replies, there are a bunch of guys here who truly have your best interest and desire for a wonderful outcome at heart. Statistically, there's really not a lot of us out there in the world, and you are about to join what i consider to be a relatively small brotherhood of men who have found themselves....cured!

So please do keep us posted. We all are pulling for you.

yes ThailandBound, I have a partner, but she was against the implant, she comes with me only out of a sense of duty, she was a little convinced when we went to my female doctor and we told him that I would have the implant in a few days , my wife expected my female doctor to say... are you crazy?, instead she answered... but it's wonderful and she was taken aback, she started thinking that maybe she (my wife) was the weird one so yes a little more convinced, but always with her idea, she said, we'll see what comes of it, thanks for the support, I'll update you constantly as always

Best of luck Frank, you will be glad you did this and so will your wife.

Going on 8 months and it was the best decision I’ve made in years! Wish I had done it about 2-3 years earlier. Look back on old threads about satisfaction compared to natural. Look back on my posts and I did a long post on it. As with most, when your dive becomes unreliable to the point you’re having more failures than successes it’s time for an implant at least for me. In this aspect it’s a no brainer. It’s much better than anything I’ve had in past 5-6 years!

the pleasure, the satisfaction, the inconveniences compared to the natural as they are for you

It took 4-6 months before it was a completely AWSOME physical feeling to have sex. Strangely the first 6-8 times I had sex after surgery was like my nerve endings we hyper sensitive and then it faded for a while and is now coming back and seems as good as it’s ever been. At first I could climax easily, then a few months in it became very difficult to climax and lately around 6-8 months it’s getting easier. Guess it’s just the healing process. I absolutely love my implant now, but took a while to say it’s as good as it’s been in the past 6-8 years!

I know you'll love it once you heal up and learn to use it. I did the same thing, saw one doc, picked him to do my surgery.
I knew nothing about implants other than it would allow me erections again. I did not have all this great information from Frank Talk yet because I didn't find it until 5 months after my implant. My healing was a tough time, but by 6 months I was using it with no pain/soreness. My sensitivity came back and orgasms were as good as my younger days.
Keep FT posted on your journey.

Reading Riders comments above emphasizes what we have read over and over again on FT, each and every operation is different, because we all unique human beings. I had an easy recovery, my sensations were normal and the same from the get-go, no pain during sex, I easily orgasmed, though the doctor had me wait 6 weeks before test flying it which may be a big factor. My wife enjoyed it from the first use and says she can't tell the difference, in fact, it has gotten better for her, she is cumming sooner and stronger than before. So far there are absolutely no negatives.

If any members are reading this and are concerned about doing the right thing, in my opinion, you will know when you need an implant and if you do, don't be afraid of it. Make the decision then don't look back, don't let your mind play the "what-if" games with you, if you need an implant, get an implant. Just remember, the most common expression said by members after getting an implant, "Knowing what I know now, I should have done this sooner."

Another excellent posts AmansinCali.

Question regarding your 6 week inaugural. I anticipate a 10 week launch date due to logistics. I’m hopeful that it will be very comfortable. How was that first time and next few subsequent?

And how about your angle? At 60% currently and pointing straight at 3 o’clock. When elect previously i pointed north at about 45 degrees. Unsure if i’ll get that northbound orientation back, but since others have written on this and are content, i’m not really worried about it. It is flexible after all. But what has been your experience?

[TurnBackTime]

Everything I have read indicates a very very strong correlation between the angle that you let yourpenis heal in and the angle of your erection. I recently took delivery of a pair of UFM underwear with an adjustable front tie (about $25.00/pair through amazon). Upon putting it on the first time the feeling was fantastic (no more scrotum to thigh chafing) ; but after a few hours it started to get uncomfortable . What is excellent about the UFM underwear is the support given through lifting the entire penis along the length of the bottom of the shaft. I have other support underwear that lifts the penis, BUT only applies the lift point to the glans area. Not very comfortable or sustainable at all. I am ordering several pairs of similar (to the UFM) underwear through Ali-Express (for about 1/6th the cost). Nothing ventured nothing gained....

I'm 6 weeks post surgery and when I'm guessing 70% inflated my angle is about 2 o'clock. When I'm rock hard inflated I'm at a 45 degree and when it's that hard it's still painful to pull down on it very much. I've had sex with my wife at 70% all the way up to max inflation. She's happy either way. It just get better feeling as each day passes. It's the best decision I've made in many years.

Frank -- very happy for you!!! you may have already posted this info, but may I ask which doc you selected, or will totally respect if you want to keep that to yourself.
