actually better than I thought I would be. Very little pain overnight, swelling is large, only took 1 pain pill last night. Pretty good so far.

Congrads on your operation going so well.
I have my second appointment with my Dr. on Aug 8, he wants to see both me and my wife.
I'm hopping he will have a surgery date for me then.
And good luck to Soon2BeBionic.

9 days after implant, 18cm coloplast (no mention of RTE's in paperwork). Doctor wants me to tug down on bulb but it seems to be behind my right testicle and stubborn to move. Doctor visit in 4 days to pump it up. Still sore to sit on chair and an occasional sharp pain to tip, other than that I'm healing well. Kinda disappointed about the 18cm implant (69 years old, slim build, 5'11",186 pounds) but I will trust his judgement.

Well my first attempt at cycling should be considered a failure. I pumped about 40 times and probably 10 of those might have "gurgled" where I heard some bubbling with the squeeze. Length is the same as when I came home after implant. The bulb is very stiff. My sac is still sore and puffy. I was in a warm tub laying on my back so anyone out there have any suggestions? I'm not in a hurry, taking my time. Thanks.

first self cycling after doctor visit is 4.5 inches. Do you measure pushed against pubic bone to tip? 40 pumps waiting a few seconds between pumps, seemingly no more fluid available. Does that seem OK?
