I had a penile implant in 2008. Then aged 31. It was an AMS 700. It has worked very well until now. Now suddenly (overnight) my right rod doesn't deflate fully and when inflated gets more inflated than the left rod and near the top it seems to bulge which hurts.
My questions are: Has anyone experienced anything similar? Is it likely that it is an aneurysm? what would the likely cause be that it won't deflate although i try to squeeze it?
I am european and it was done in europe but the clinic has since been closed and I now live in a country where these kind of surgeries are not done, so before i panic and just head home again I thought I should ask here first if someone has experienced this.

And can anyone recommend any doctors/clinics in europe, or in Usa? What would the cost be today as I would have to pay the full costs myself? and how long would I have to wait to have it replaced?

thanks for any answers.

There are clinics in several east coast cities. Search Frank talk. Youtube has some excellent info too.

Dr. Eid. By far, one of the most honorable people I have had the pleasure to know, and be treated by.

Dr David Ralph - highest volume implanter in Europe. Based in London.

For cost, you need to indicate that you're paying cash to get a good. My doctor in Canada charges $20K USD. In the US, I read somewhere that Dr. Eid charges just over $30K USD if paying cash. I guess you need to call the clinics and ask. Make sure you ask for "All Inclusive price". If paying cash, it takes 1 to 2 months for my doctor. It took me much longer than that as my surgery was done under the blanket of our socialized medicine in Canada.

Good luck brother

Thanks all for your replies.
Having it done in my own country, Sweden; is not an option, although it would be free. Likely waiting time is more than a year.

I would love to go with him, but I don´t if he plans to retire soon. Anyone knows?

Dr Eid did my implant about a week ago and I saw no indications of his retiring anytime soon. He's got a thriving practice and other doctors visiting to observe his surgeries.

Hi, you can have it done in Germany. Total cost 18.000 Euro, all inclusive, even stay for a couple of days in hospital. PM me if you want more details.
