Re: Does Name Brand Surgeon Matter?

After months of struggling and three consults (about 6 months ago I didn't know there were IPPs), I'm making final decisions. I've talked to two of the "big names" and a local Center of Excellence surgeon in the Mid-Atlantic Region. I think the local doctor is probably the right choice fo...

Re: help please

In fact, I see that by masturbating I can almost equal my old thickness, but this can only be achieved with the deflated prosthesis. I think there is something not right with the size measurements you are providing. The AMS 700 CX is available in 12, 15, 18,21,and 24cm. Your listed measurements tot...

Re: Have you had any discomfort in the reservoir area?

I am curious if the members here felt any discomfort post op in the reservoir area, for how long, and where is your reservoir placed? I am at 5 weeks and i still feel discomfort. It is on my left side, to the left of my bladder. It is not real pain, but definetely noticeable for example at night if...

Re: URGENT Help needed

40 year old male. I had a three piece penile prosthesis installed in the first week of October and infection got in. White exudate (probably pus) won’t stop coming out. Things got worse this afternoon. They’re keeping me in ER tonight and keeping me on IV antibiotics so that (maybe) the infection g...

Re: Floppy Glands *Warning Picture*

Sent an email to my consultant today so I'm waiting to hear back from him. I'd love to go out of the country with someone else but it won't be covered by insurance. The CXR device is the narrow cylinder model. It is used when the doctor cannot dilate the corpora enough to install the regular CX or ...

Re: Now the pump isn't working

Thank you. Yeah that's exactly it on the video. I had to do that 4 times before it started working again. My concern is that I need to do that so soon after surgery. Like anything that is built there are tolerances to the fit of the parts. I think they are made "tight" to last as long as ...

Re: Oval Shape and Corpus Spongiosum Engorgement

I do have a very small amount of engorgement when stimulated to the point of an old erection. If just cycling, I have no engorgement. Most noticeable for me is my glans. Some will use oral ED meds to help out. Some even a trimix gel or muse. Nothing worked for me except a VED before surgery. Best I ...

Re: Pump twisted

Mine used to rotate around. Like you say easy to turn how you want it. Not really a problem for me nor did it develop into anything else. I am Not a doctor, and you may want to contact yours. Hey newbie443, Different but related question. In the beginning, did you have problems with your fingers sl...

Re: The difficult choice of implant before surgery. CX or Titan

I told my doctor that I wanted either a Titan or a LGX but would let him decide. There are 2 reasons for that. The doctor has much more knowledge than I do and better qualified to decide after examining me and reviewing my medical records. The doctor will also do better work I think if they are impl...
