Numbness:
I don’t think you have it that bad, I wish I had some numbness, I am the opposite, it is so sensitive that it causes pain. I have to use a cream to numb my implant. My surgeon says he never seen that before. My other urologist said that with each revision the skin gets thinner.
She also suggested I use condoms, but I just don’t like to use them, it is like touching with gloves.
I am now taking gabapentin for the pain, it helps, but to get to a point with no pain, I have to take a 600 ml, this dose is to high and it has side effects.
I also think that the pain I am experiencing is due on how much and for how long I use my implant and I use it to its fullest potential.
Implants are not 100% perfect, but it definitely beats the alternative.
Are you better than you were before?
That is the question.
