Mysterious tips

I may never know the real story of what actually happened and why. But I trust that Dr Kramer will correct it as much as possible.
I was so proud when I fixed my distal crossover, nursed the left tip back into its hole. The CT scan seemed to show just that gave me 2 months of false hope (I needed it) The CT scan also shows that I have been twisted since the catheter came out. I don't think my right tip ever got right. I think that the right side was torn by too many occupants at the same time. It feels as if the right tip has long been down against my urethra instead of up above it. Now flaccid pulling my glans up, the tips feel side by side in perfect position. My only clue is the slanted glans. I have put myself on celibacy pending a revision.
It will be about 4 months before Dr Kramer sees me until then my tips will remain a mystery.

Give Dr. Eid a call I’m sure he will be able to help you.

It's a shame they couldn't prioritize you.
I do think you will get it fixed RIGHT this time though.

Might be worth asking Dr K if he wants to see your CT scan before the surgery date. Could help him plan what he needs to do. If you have the scan on a DVD you can just copy it to a dropbox folder and email a link to that folder to Dr K . Then he can view it right at his desk.

I think Eid and Kramer are about equally skilled in implant surgery. The tie breaker for me was the logistics of flying into Baltimore from the west coast are much more difficult than flying into NYC. I predict you will do very well with Dr K.
