Dr. Eid checked my penis up & down and was pleased with how it turned out as am I. He then inflated it and wow!....it was hard.....it was really something to see and feel Mr Happy grow right in front of my eyes........I did feel some discomfort but that is normal and will subside with use & cycling over a period of time.....I am down 3/8" from post op length (from 5 1/2 to 5 1/8) which I hope to recover over the next 6-12 months of cycling & use......but the bottom line is that I have a nice hard dick with no sideways bends or visual abnormality....he then deflated me and I feel more normal.......I'm at 4 o'clock in it's deflated state and it's still a nice shower.....
My pump is in a good location and easy to locate & grasp.....Dr. Eid recommended that I wait a week before cycling as my penis and scrotum still have some swelling as well the incision was coated with an antibiotic ointment and bandages (that will fall off in 3-4 days by themselves) and didn't want me to mess around in that area.....he's very cautious when it come to infection prevention.....I return in 1 week and will cycle under his supervision.....meanwhile I have my keychain pump to practice with.....I feel like I'll be studying for a test.....

In summary, my experience was "picture perfect"......I don't mean to sound like The Good Ship Lollypop as I prepared myself for the worst, or at least I had accepted the realization that I might have had problems like long term pain, something botched (inadvertently), perhaps a revision.....I guess I lucked out in this instance......
My advice to those who will or want to have this surgery......research this thoroughly......don't just read what is posted here currently, go back over the past few years and read all that you can.....scour the internet, speak in detail with your dr of choice...and question everything.......be aware of every possible nuance & outcome and remember that everyone's experience is different......there is no set constant.....it is easier to handle what is known than to handle what is not known......
