You’re from Canada and you chose to go to the States to get this procedure? I got mine for free. You must be rich!

St1pan2019, I *HIGHLY* recommend getting an enema bulb at a minimum, or a full bag setup.

The water pressure alone will assist in evacuating the bowels, and if you start with nice warm but not hot water, and hold it for several minutes before letting it go, it helps soften what's blocked up.

I used my 9 oz enema bulb on numerous occasions until about day 10-12 because it was just easier to get the water pressure to help rather than trying to push (which sometimes hurt like the devil).

St1pan: I figured out before you post that the guy you met was MagicMike. He is a friend of mine. I live 45 min from him. I am scheduled to get my implant done in New Orleans on Monday morning.

Magic like you said he had a couple of difficult days. I got a message from him this morning that he was better today.

Good luck on your healing. We will compare notes after I go bionic!

I finally did it and it came naturally thank God! Didn’t hurt much at all ... no pushing :D

Thanks Cajun! Magic seems like a great guy.. funny how things go and the people you meet on this site... never thought I’d run into someone at docs office and then text one another after surgery to see how they made out and how they are doing.. crazy shit! All the best to you brother!

Hey ST

You sound like you are doing well and as expected. Eid does give a lot of pills and i used them generously. lol.

Apparently you had a lot of scraping and such in and deep down the length of your corpora. That is sore and then the digging for the placement of the reservoir. Definitely Eid did a thorough job and you got some extra space!!! nice

Hope all is well when you see him tomorrow and you return to your wife and kids...

Best to you

Mike

It was definitely painfull for the first day and a half but it's not bad at all right now as long I take my ibuprofen .

I took my catheter out this morning and that too was not bad either. No pain or discomfort at all. Happy to get rid of that thing as now I have so much more movement and freedom. Got see my junk and very little bruising to none but it is sensitive for sure and have to get used to the third wheel in there . My penis now points to the left which it never did before and is pointing in the 3 o'clock position. I have a pretty tight sac so getting used to the pump in there will be interesting.

The pump ball sits low and in the centre but the pump block is facing forward to backward with the release button facing forward that is toward the front of my body and the other side of the block is facing towards my back or ass. I think I can feel everything pretty good but because of the way the block is facing I can't get finger in behind the block because it's facing my butt and almost in my perineum. Hopefully I will figure this out but too nervous to start moving the pump around so it faces another way. Is that possible to alter the whole pump in terms of which way it's facing?
So far so good up to this point and will see Eid in the morning to learn how to operate this thing properly and let him have a look at his work. I will try to play with it again after my second bath real soon.

Yesterday was Post op Day 4-

I went to see Eid for activation and was worried about the pain but only took my ibuprofen as I haven’t taken any percocets since day 2 and didn’t want to start up again. Pain was real when he got to max inflation… unbearable in the tips and pressure in shaft was throbbing. He maintained that for a few minutes and then released and deflated. Then it was my turn to show him I could do it.

I was worried because due to my scleroderma which affects a lot of different things in my body, joints is one of them and my grip and hand strength is not what it used to be but I still like to think Im pretty strong but the bulb felt like squeezing a golf ball. Eid showed me a real easy trick with two thumbs and it worked on my first try.
Right thumb and fore finger turn to face your scrotum with the thumb on the right side of your body when looking down and finger on left. First find the bulb then move up to find the neck of the pump. Grasp neck with the thumb and fore finger (this will ensure the unit doesn’t move and no slipping) and now place right middle finger below fore finger on pump bulb. With Left hand put your left thumb on top of the other thumb already on the neck (which is also partly on bulb). Then place your left fore finger and middle finger across the right fore and middle finger already on neck and bulb. Squeeze all these fingers on bulb while holding neck and you should feel the squish of liquid transfer. There was no popping sound that some on here have mentioned but maybe I wasn’t paying close attention and initially I did not have to press with much force either. More force is needed once you start to get close to max inflation. This is where I may have trouble with my grip strength and will have to get more creative or look to you guys for tips.
Eid was happy with my progress so far and the lack of stronger meds for pain during initial activation. Gave me his cell number and told me to call with questions or concerns anytime. He is wonderful and did a good job. Had take a bunch of meds after I saw him because everything hurt like hell and I had to get on a plane a few hours later. Not fun.

Today – Post op Day 5

Took my third bath since I got home (so glad to be back home) and cycled for second time at home. Still using Eids technique but added a wash cloth in the mix as my scrotum skin is really sore so thought I’d add a level of comfort between my fingers and the skin. It seemed to take the edge off a bit… not much but just enough to get some more pumps in. The skin on the scrotum in certain places feel raw to the touch for some reason. Also the left testicle has this sharp pinching feeling inside which can get real annoying. I'm sure its due to the intruder rubbing it a certain way or something but its not pleasant. I’m sure in time I won’t even notice the discomfort with the testicle issue. Anyways, I got over 25 pumps in but they were half pumps at best (not wall to wall) but it definitely got hard and stood at about 2 o’oclock. I would pump until I felt a bit of discomfort then I would stop and hold for a minute and give an extra 2-3 pumps and hold and continue until I got to a point where I could not stand to pump anymore, only slight discomfort for now.. baby steps.

As for size:
My best VED length was 6.5 inches but I knew that I would not achieve that length after surgery. My best non-VED length was 6 inches bone pressed or just over 15 cm. Eid stretched me at 14cm at pre-op and I told him I could get more but he would see what he could do when he got in there. He told me 14 was all he could stretch me during surgery as it was such a mess in there… I think he used the word obliterated when referencing my erectile tissue. Not good. So after pumping up today in the bath I tried to measure but fat pad was a bit swollen (My fat pad is maybe 1 inch or so right now by usually about 0.75 inches normally), I got to a smidge over 13 cm. . No glans or natural engorgement (which I don’t get much anyway) but still get some when aroused. My girth was about 4.7 inches today and my best is slightly over 5 inches so not to far off. With cycling I’m hoping to work on both length and girth and think I can get to my pre-op lengths of at least 15cm bone pressed. I have about 2cm to go and hope the Titan can stretch out some but even if I only get 1 more cm I will still be happy to be able to use this thing at will!

That’s it for now. Will keep updating when there is news to report or if there are any questions to be answered.
