Implant for 44 y/o
Posted: Tue May 24, 2011 4:42 pm
Hello all,
I am meeting with a surgeon next week to start the possible implant conversation. He is the chief surgeon in a Men's Health Center of a major facility in Providence RI. He does 150+ implants annually (2-3 per week) He comes highly recommended by my Uro. To quote him "he is an artist" and "if I had to get it done he would be who I would go to..." So that makes me feel more confident... Anyway, what concerns me is getting implanted at 44 I would obviously be facing 1-2 revisions in the future. Has anyone here had a revision after a failure of the unit? If so what was the outcome? It seems like the first one works good, but it is downhill from there according to what I have read...
What other questions should I ask him during the consult? (I do have a list already!) Just trying to cover all my bases...
FYI-I have done the pills 5+ years...stopped working. Currently using tri-mix with good results, but the timing/prep sucks and it really limits the available opportunity. ie: morning sex is a no go if I have anywhere to go. Night sex is OK but I have to go to sleep hard and not sure when it goes down etc. So as long as morning and night is out...WTF.
Any input would be appreciated...
Thanks,
Bob
