Do you keep your implant totally secret?

Postby strongagain » Sat Aug 29, 2015 9:23 am

I wonder, do you brothers keep absolutely quiet about your implant? Is only your gf/wife knowing about it? What about family and friends, do some of them know about it?

It's not a secret, but why is it the business of anybody with whom you're not intimate? Nobody knows about mine except my wife and my doctors (and FT members, but we're basically anonymous). I've never felt the need to discuss my body parts with anybody else.

Like dg, just my wife, my doctors and anyone who reads my posts here know about it.

As the others have said my doctors, my best male friend and my spouse know. To the rest of world I am having a hernia repair. Not because I am embarrassed but I know I would be the talk of the office if I confided in my boss and my adult kids would be grossed out thinking Grandpa and Grandma still like to get it on. :D

It's been a few months, and my girlfriend has no clue I have an implant - I'm keeping it secret :D

Well, i'm due with a week or so....havent got an exact date yet. My Docs office is running the procedure trough m insurance comapnies. i'm nervous as hell here. for two reasons. How i'm treated in the hospital.....the hospital is a major Air Force Medical faciity. i'e been told, no worrie, Tri Care will cover it. I'm just stressing about ying of embarassment the day or so i'm gonna be in the hospital. from past experience....the nurses are quite young, and very sexy.
I'm wondering how an old guy lie me deals with the docs, nurses, etc, for my stay oernite.

Your girlfriend seems to be quite clueless about the male anatomy. Pump...

Same as others with only wife knowing (though even as an ICU nurse says unless handling my scrotum she would never know) and doctors. Otherwise I went for "urology old guy surgery" when asked which made everyone quiet no further questions.

This experience is unique, and possibly life-changing, for you, but for the medical professionals it's just another day at the office. They've seen it all, and the nurses don't care if you've had an implant or an appendectomy or a hip replacement - their duties remain the same and you're just another piece of meat to them. After you're discharged your bed will hardly have time to cool off before the next patient comes in. Don't even consider what the hospital staff will be thinking - in fact, they'll be thinking about lunch, quitting time, their kids' activities, or tonight's date, but certainly not your implant.
