Going for pre opp appt tomorrow

Postby sliphill » Mon May 29, 2017 1:56 pm

Well tomorrow I see my doctor for the pre opp appointment. I also see the anatheaseologist.I have a lot of questions. Oddly enough I had started taking a aromatse inhibitor to reduce estrogen, and have been getting night time wood. But the wood is only about 40%, so the VL is real. I will let him know about this. I can't help but think that I caused scarring by injecting which caused the VL, but really, what does it matter now!

Who is your doctor?
Implanted March 2nd by Dr. Kramer with AMS/LGX. Had a problem lower left (scar tissue) and he placed a larger (thicker) implant as you can here on the YouTube video. Got all back, ED over 10 years before Implant.

Hi Ed,

My Implant restored both my sex life and the emotional bond with my wife.
I would do it again in a heart-beat!!

Well, I saw the doctor and asked what he was going to use. He said he is going to install the AMS LGX. That's good, that's what I preferred. He doesn't use the titan type. He said he could direct to me someone that does use them. Nah, the AMS is ok with me. I don't know why, but forgot to tell him I had hernia surgery 37 years ago. And I think they used the mesh method. He still thought he could still use the 3 piece unit. Hopefully the mesh is not all across my abdomin. I guess even if he had to put the 2 piece unit in, it would be better than what I have now.

good luck !

Note, in the setting of hernia surgery, etc, placing the reservoirs in an "ectopic reservoir location" is a thing that some implant surgeons do.

Sliphill....best of luck!! Surgeon told me I'd be sorry for a month or so, then very happy. I have not been sorry once since coming out of anesthesia 10 days ago. Just sorry I waited this long. Life is good, and you will be, too :)
