I am 1 year out from my implant, and am still wondering about something. When I'm engaging in solo sex ( taking my implant out for a test drive myself ) I often wonder if I'm damaging or shortening the life of my implant. Has anyone else wondered about this, and what answers did you get ? I don't ha...

Thanks.. Good to know.

I was implanted on December 13, 2013. ( AMS 700 ) Everything is working fine, and the sensation is slowly coming back. So, here is my question. What are the chances of damaging my implant during solo play or with my spouse. How "energetic" can I be with this. Do I need to worry about damag...

The bath will feel great.. Good advice on the stool softeners. I took advantage of those, and they really helped. I also spent a few nights sleeping in my recliner, about halfway back, until the swelling started to go down. And when I sat in my living room chair, I had a pillow on my lap just in cas...

All the best to you. I was implanted on December 13th 2013, and had a bit of a rough recovery due to other health issues. ( Blood thinners due to heart condition ) Don't get discouraged. my recovery has been baby steps, but I'm now getting back into life, and enjoying not worrying about my ED anymor...

Thanks to all for your feedback. i went to my doctor yesterday, and he recreated the same problem I did. He said there might be a little air bubble or the valve just might be finicky. He was able to cycle the implant a couple times, and got the valve to go "pop". Since I've gotten home yes...

Thanks to everyone for your help. As a new guy to this, I'm just having problems, and the more I try the more frustrated I get. It has got to have something to do with "resetting" that valve, I just can't get the hang of it yet. I can hardly wait to see my doctor in a few weeks. I'm approa...

Thanks Nathan, I tried and tried, but same result. I'm so sore, I'm gonna have to give it a few days rest I think. But, it is nice getting such a quick reply from someone, and knowing I'm not alone. Thanks again.

I had my AMS 700 implanted on December 19th 2013. The pump is very hard to even compress, and when it does even a little bit, it stays compressed for hours. Has anyone else had this happen, and might the pump be defective? I have to push on the pump so hard, I get sore down there for a couple days. ...
