I don't feel it's necessary to pump beyond the length you hope for.
When I pumped, I got an additional 1/2", but ended up right where I wanted to be.
I was also not wanting to show any bruising prior to surgery.
It's too late for me to give an opinion, but I wouldn't want a Titan if it wasn't necessary.

You will fine with what I read you doing the ved and traction your size should be. 6 to 61/2 in. Usually 1/2 in less
Then the max stretch with the ved. Use your pump and traction right up to the day before lift off.don't over do it

Might have mentioned it before, but he told me in order to get a good approximation of my length after the implant is to get in the shower with warm water and make sure everything is relaxed. Then give it a stretch and measure. That should be pretty close to the size I should expect the length to be. Girth is a different factor. I hope so because without to much effort, I actually get over 6 inches. That would put me at 6 long and 6 girth if I get it back. He also said depending on the elasticity left that over the next year I should expect to get back more length.

Time will tell. 13 days.

In my limited experience, I know I lost girth with the CX.

Days are just flying by. Had my visit with my general practitioner and got my bloodwork. All looks good. Talked to surgery center, all good there. They want to talk to my cardiologist for some reason. Luckily I had an EKG a few weeks ago along with a treadmill stress test. Told me I was healthy and did great, so should not be an issue.

One interesting thing, my general doc wanted me to see another urologist just to get another opinion, I figured what the hell, okay. Saw him, and he told me, yep, I have peyronies for sure. He did not do an in depth examination, we just went over the history. He did tell me if I had seen him as my first urologist after the accident, he would have done tests before just writing me a prescription for viagra. Those would have included blood flow tests, a tri mix injection, and measurements, just to get it in my history. He also goes over with new users of viagra that you need to make sure you have a good erection for sex, if it is to soft, you could injure yourself. Damn. I guess there are some good docs out there. As for now, he agreed I had no options. The titan would fix my 30 to 35 degree curve, along with the hourglass, and since it was scheduled for next week, I would be crazy not to go through with it. Crazy is my word, but he said I needed to have it done.

Oh, he also did measure me. He gave it a good pull and measured at 6.25 inches. He said the glans might be pulled a little to tight so plan on somewhere around the 6 inch mark. He thought I had good stretch even with the peyronies and figured the traction and VED probably helped. The plaque is there, but not as noticeable as it was months ago, but the hourglass is still evident. He did not think the Pentox did anything for me, but if I am healthy, it probably did not hurt anything and could stop it after the implant is in and working. I could come back to him if I were to need any viagra or cialis to see about getting a glans engorgement, but he thought since I actually get blood flow, my glans should engorge just fine when I am horny. He also agreed with the other 4, the titan was my best choice and he implants both models himself. I asked how many a year, and he said not enough for me to cancel my surgery and worry about letting him do it. He said he personally knew my doctor, and his reputation and I was in good hands, time will tell. Did make me feel a little better.
