Tenk's Journal

Lost Sheep, I love your posts.

Ed, thank for the well wishes. Even though I was just out of surgery, stuff was all swollen and ugly, and my penis was numb, I could tell right away by touching my penis that I made the right choice. It feels very natural and I can feel the potential of the tubes when they inflate. I thought maybe I would feel bad or depressed or something at being "different," but no, I don't feel different at all. I feel fine and I feel like in six weeks my penis is just going to WORK. I'll be sending you the positive vibes next week!

'Hang' in there brother. You'll be fine. It just takes time. Don't rush it. It's worth the wait. Prayers,

Four days post-op and i woke up with more pain than the previous days. I may have slacked on my pain medicine, i don't think so though. I'm feeling soreness and pain in the area of the incision and my nutss, possibly because I've been pushing the pump down, gentle as may be. It's just interesting how i feel worse than previous days.

Time, time, time,
Time to heal. You'll do fine. There is no need to rush. Take it easy. Welcome bionic brother.

Tenk.
Congrats to you. Im 2 weeks post-op & can tell you its a slow process but gets better. Not terrible pain but discomfort. The advice to stay off your feet is spot on. Ice also for the swelling. Rest up, you'll be chasing that client before you know it.

Whoops, i didn't give the specs. I have a Coloplast Titan OTR. 20 cm cylinders (no rear tip extenders) with a 125 ml reservoir. I guess i have stuff for my signature now!

Sounds like your doing terrific especially working the pump down! You'll be using it before you know it! Won't remember all the prior stuff you went through BTW.

Congrats on your Titan and welcome to the club.

Day 16:

Yesterday was my first day back at work (desk job). It was way more challenging than I thought it would be. I got some ice so fast when i got home. Today at work was much, much better. No idea why there was such a drastic change.

I saw my doctor on Wednesday morning about the rising pump. He said that he thought it would be way higher according to the pictures I sent him. He said one of the issues (and honestly, I had thought this might be a problem a week or two ago) is that I have a small scrotum. It's not that abnormal or anything but the bottom of the pump is at the bottom of my sack so there's not much else the top of the pump can go. He told me to push from the top of the pump so I'm doing a two handed technique now. If it stays where it is I reckon it won't be too much of a problem after the soreness goes away. Still going to keep pushing and pulling though!

On a side note, I am very happily surprised that I have not felt the reservoir for even a second. I know I have read accounts where guys say that the pain from the reservoir is excruciating.

Thank you all for the well wishes and for all the others that have gotten implants recently. You know who you are. Have a good night!

I got my pump activated yesterday. The doctor said everything looks good. I glad to discover that pumping is not as hard as I thought. Deflating is a little bit due to positioning.

The length looks like it's probably the same or very close to before surgery but the girth - My dick is flat(oval really) as pancake! I've read Franktalk enough to know this happens so I'm apprehensive, but not too worried. My doctor said I could have sex in a week but I would feel weird if it doesn't round out more by then. Also still have swelling from the incision and stuff. I'm not in a relationship anymore so it would be with someone new so I'd be embarassed. A shame, I'm going to my brother's wedding in Barranquilla, Colombia, and I bet there are going to be some hot mamacitas there!

Thanks again for all the support, Franktalk!
