Revision surgery

[milesyj]

Happy New Year all!
I've been told I'm going to have to have revision surgery as my left implant column isn't anywhere near my glans (it's jutting out to the left and not even attached). Also the frame that holds it all in place is too far up and needs lowering. Great eh! The implant rods aren't anywhere near the top of my glans so am wondering if they're going to add some RTE's or if they're going to need to put a new implant in. Anyone know if it's going to be just as painful as the first time? I thought my pain threshold was high but after this op it changed my mind on this and think I'm a bit of a wimp :-0 At least I suppose it might lengthen the look of my old man a bit (you think?) as I wasn't happy with that side of things at all. Will keep you posted anyway. Had an MRI scan so waiting on a date now.

Where was the original surgery performed? By whom?

It was performed at UCLH London by Mr Ralph. He's very experienced so I'd have thought this wouldn't have happened. He's one of the most experience in the U.K. from what I've heard.
