Re: First Inflate w Titan Need Help
I’m having similar pain issues at about 12 weeks after surgery. Pump is very hard to operate and always painful. I can maybe get in 7 deep pumps before the pain from the cylinders becomes unbearable. I also have severe pain in the deflate mode but this is from the soreness of the skin on my scrotum ...

Implanted Monday June 21.
Everything went well on the longest day! Pain was apparent Monday and Tuesday but oxy helped. Stopped oxy at 8AM on Tuesday morning.Today was essentially pain free and I removed the bandages and drain. Bruising over the whole area. Will be interesting to see the result once the swelling goes down. M...

Re: Incontinence before/after implant
Well I'm finally going in for an AMS AUS on March 23rd at Duke with Dr Lentz. This will be followed by an implant, (Coloplast), on June 21st so I'm knocking it all out in just a few months. Dr Lentz is a high volume and highly regarded surgeon and I have every confidence in having a positive outcome...

Re: AUS affected glans engorgment
Thanks for the information,OB. The physiological effects of having ed and copious leakage post RP are difficult to deal with. My RP was not without issue either; I was in the hospital for 8 days after the surgery due to an ileus caused by the anesthesia. Two years later I had a trans-urethral sling ...

Re: AUS affected glans engorgment
I'd like to know more about how effective the aus is, oldbeek. I'm a candidate for dual implantation of the aus and ipp due to now having ed and 12oz daily urine leakage post rp 4 years ago. No problems prior to the surgery so the dual outcomes are, to say the least, extremely depressing to the poin...

Re: Incontinence before/after implant
I went through that physio exercise (with the kegals and pelvic strengthening), beginning about 9 months after my prostatectomy. The highly qualified physio staff were very good and patient with me but after about 3 months it was agreed that no progress was being made, I had to face the fact that th...

Re: Incontinence before/after implant
Oldbeek,what were you like before the implant? Did the implant slow your incontinence? Ejaculating urine is also not something to advertise and I'm hoping that some combination of the implantable devices will stop that as well.

Re: Incontinence before/after implant
Hi Bamaboy, I too need the aus and implant. I had my prostate removed in Jan 2016 and have ed and incontinence ever since. I did have the trans-urethral sling placed in May 2019 and while initially, for ten days, it seemed to work I still have leakage that has become stable and am now using two or t...
