VED dangers advice

[DougAnd]

MK reminded me of something that I had forgotten. Those of you who are thinking about using a vacuum device you need to understand a few basics. I bought several different tubes for a reason. The tube will determine your girth and if it is too big you will balloon out looking like a blob. That happened to me the night before surgery, but on purpose. Ultra sound showed excessive scarring had my uro freaked out. Why? Because usually that means a very difficult dilation in some cases accidental penetration of your skin and the end of implant surgery until repair and healing. Other times they just give up you have floppy head or uneven tips.
I used VED to purposely blow myself up like a balloon had the shaft the same size right up tp my glans very strange looking but it worked. Opened up both chambers top to bottom said they never had an easier surgery. Just minutes before lights out the surgeon had sent in the AMS RN trying to convince me to accept the CX instead of the LGX because its cylinders are much smaller made for patients who have heavy scarring and cannot be fully opened up. I was stretched to 20 mm I think about twice needed. So the VED is a great tool when used properly.
So tip #1 always use the smallest cylinder that fits comfortably. In other words measure your girth and buy a VED that has an ID the same size or within 1/8".
Tip #2. Pressure. I use whatever my penis can stand, works faster. After implant if your uro agrees it only takes very gentle pressure to engorge your very damaged chambers with life giving blood. And to refresh your shriveled glans. Last night my first 5 did only that. Then I decided to go for it, used max pressure to see if I was wasting my time stretching out. Be careful using excessive pressure. In May I blew out my glans very painful. Do not hold pressure for more than 15 minutes at a time. I did about 20 and boom! 5 on and 5 off is even safer.
Tip #3. Be consistent. Daily. Twice daily even better. It only takes a few days to lose your gains. I don't plan on trying to keep my 6 3/8" of this AM. Serves me no purpose. Back down to 6+" is more than fine. You choose.
Good luck!

Hi
What preasure are you using it at?
What are you doing 10 minutes 2X a day?

Was using it 1X a day.
I just started trying to use it 2X a day.
Usually can not get time to it 2X a day.

Think they told me not to use it more than 20 minutes.
I am trying to regain lenght. Have not gotten implant yet.
Don't think I have gotten any gains. Getting discouraged.
Thank you

007,
Mine has no pressure gauge. If you have a ball pump squeeze it till it remains flat. Hand pump be careful. I sit in a very hot tub for 10 mins and then keep the bell underwater while pumping. %minutes under pressure and 5 min off. 3 times takes about 35 , 40 mins. Before work and before bed. How much did you lose? Also what is your ID (tube) and what is your girth? A bigger ID means much slower progress. Need to keep it as small as possible about 1/8" larger ID than your girth.
It took me less than three months to grow back to full loss actually about 65 days. I seem to be an exception, not sure why but it must be the size and the pressure. Good luck.

I was told to do it up to 5 times a day for 5 minutes each time.

Hi Doug and Larry

I bought the dry system. I heard some really think warm water helps.
It has a gauge.
The tube I am using is I think 1 1/2 in diameter.
I just fit in. Little play. When i crank it up I fill the tube.
I thought I was not getting any results because maybe filling up the tube (diamete wise). So I bought a 2 inch tube. Had problems getting pressure up and staying.
If I did get it to work as supposed to I would be flopping around inside.
Went back to old tube.

Used to be little over 8 inches before ED
Girth now about 4 inches.
Dr told me i would be about 5 inches with implant.
Too much of a loss for me.
Length is what I always brought to the table.

Bought VED about 3 years ago. Used on and off.
Never really thought got much out of it.

Little over a year ago I got a stretcher.
Been trying to use often. 4hrs if I get time maybe as many as 10.
I take breaks, every 1-2 hrs.
Figure anything more probably not a great idea

Regarding lenght Vs. girth
I asked 2 regular urologist if it was better to have girth than lenght.
Both where unsure.

Surgeon told me I would be happy. Told him if we could split the difference I would do it.

Have had to sadly come to realize only way out was to get the implant.
I am single. Go to friends house. Friends wife wanted to hook up with me.
She complained that her husband was hung like a goldfish.
Has happend several times. Stopped going with another group of friends for that same reason. 5 wives out if that group. For some reason they thing i am hung like a hoarse.
More to that story but will spare U.
Not so long ago guys ex-wife I had a thing for. Asked me if I wanted to come over for dinner. Went for dinner by myself, meet a gorgeous woman from out of town. Offered me dinner at hotel she was staying at or we could do room service.
When I was younger I was one usually doing the chasing. Not chasing in years.
Now I am throwing them back.

Now using stretcher and VED. Want to get it over and done with.
I figure maybe after new year I get measured up again.
If I have no gains will stop using both and forget about implant.
Thank you
Bond

You guys on FT are making it look like I have a magic penis. I really don't think that is possible. It has got to be the pressure that I use which makes the difference. I have no doubt that "Safe pressures" are a total waste of time. But I've never had a gauge. Maybe my penis is magic?
