Uneven/Asymmetrical Deflation
Hey all, I'm just about 4 weeks post-implant now and I've been noticing that the left cylinder of my Titan is far less willing to deflate than the right one. Even when I squeeze on only the left cylinder, it still doesn't want to deflate whereas the right one deflates without any problems. It feels like I have to deflate, wait 5 minutes, deflate, wait another 5 minutes, and deflate again in order to get comfortably flaccid. Has anyone here dealt with something similar? If so, when/how did it improve, if ever? Thanks!

Sounds as you have a kink in the tubing to that cylinder. Follow the tubing from that cylinder back to the pump with your fingers. See if you find a kink. No kink? call your surgeon. When mine decompress, the right always stays a little longer. During inflation the left is last to gain full length. Only 1/4 inch difference ever.
