T Minus 12 Hours(Journal)

So nice to come here and read that you are having great progress. How was your pre flight check with TSA? Pat down and whatnot? And if eid is pleased with the result then you can relax a bit more... Now it's a matter of time till it starts to become pliable and you are able to inflate to the max daily to help with size regain...

Funny you mention the TSA pat down... they flagged me for something showing up in the groin region and I told them I had surgery so they took me to a private room and I had to drop my pants.. they saw enough and let me go pretty quickly.. lol

Haha I'm finding it funny, but I can only imagine dropping my pants at the airport and having my junk inspected by an officer... :/

As for the length you want to regain, have your read anything on post surgery inflation protocols?

St1pan2019, I will see dr. Eid tomorrow again. I did not figure it out how to use the delating button on Monday. Was too painful and now at home I tried once but I don't think I got it. I am still partially inflated although he deflated me before I left the office. Somehow fluid got back in and I am worried about: is that normal, or what?
Did you get a grip now on inflating and deflating, since you are so far away withno help?

Jim,
read my post - 'Yesterday was Post-Op Day 4' post a day or two ago. I describe how Eid taught me to inflate with ease...still painful but i can do it on the first try. The key to deflating is being able to feel for the deflate button. The one side of the pump button is flat and the other side has the slightly raised round bottom. Once you can decipher which end is which you just hold squeeze the deflate button with your thumb while holding the other flat side with your finger so the pump doesn't move. Hold for a few seconds and release then squeeze the fluid from your shaft by squeezing your penis hard. Or you can do both at the same time while squeezing the deflate button squeeze your penis together. Ask Eid which way the pump is positioned as this will help to located which end is which on the deflated button etc. Let me know how it goes.

I've read what you wrote, but I did not quite get it. At his clinic he inflated and deflated, but it hurt like hell, that's why he told me to come on Thursday so hopefully pain will be less. I will get pain med tomorrow, but the good news is that today I tried to deflate, I felt the thing, and I squized my shaft at the same time. I felt that fluid went back, but I was afraid to inflate. I will try that tomorrow at his office. As I remember I've asked him and when I asked him that I should keep the thumb on the deflating thing at the same time squizing the shaft, he said yes. I will specifically ask him tomorrow since you mentioned that you squize the button for a few seconds and then you squize the penis. I believe you since it works for you, and I understand that even after you get your thumb off, the liquid in the tubes get back in the reservoir. Thanks
