AMS 800 AUS

Postby oldbeek » Wed Jul 08, 2020 1:40 am

Going back to my implant dr to get an AUS on 7-23. Tired of having my new tool laying in a diaper full of pee. Hope it will be worth the pain. Then I will have 2 reservoirs and 4 nuts. Cancer sucks. just don't get it.

Before my implant I met with a fellow who had both done at the same time (Penile implant and Urinary Sphincter) at the same time. He came out fine and pleased. I expect you will be pleased, also.

Praying for you.

Best of luck with this… You’re in my thoughts… when I woke up from my transplant surgeries, everything seems to be going fine… About a month afterwards, they did a bladder scan at one of the follow up appointments to find that I had almost a liter of urine left in my bladder… they started me on bladder training and I was able to begin urinating until my bladder was empty again… It took nearly 3 months of Keagle‘s and sort of tensing up my abdominal muscles before things became completely natural feeling again… Do you think they have anything like this for guys in your situation? My implant put me in the exact opposite direction… After implant, I was completely unable to void my bladder again... I went right back to the bladder training and now have to cath every now and again when my input and output don’t match up… I wish there was an implant for this situation, some days… It’s kind of disconcerting but, everything seems to be getting back to normal slowly but surely…

There are several guys in our US TOO prostate cancer support group that have the AMS 800, some have the IPP implant. Some guys have both. You're right Cancer sucks! The two main side effects men fear are ED and incontinence, both can be fixed!!! Serviving prostate cancer is the goal, but living a full enjoyable life is great!
