Pumping Technique
Hi team, This coming Tuesday will be my 8 week mark since surgery. Everything is going fantastic in my opinion. No pain, no discomfort, I barely know it is there. I am still evolving as far as length is concerned. I was never a huge guy - maybe 6 + on my best day. When I began cycling, I measured at...

Re: Show and Tell in the Charlotte NC Area?
Hello, I'm scheduled for Infapubic Penile Implant Surgery with Dr. Perito March 13th, 2020. I'm searching for someone that would share their experience that has had Infapubic Penile Implant and preferably had his surgery with Dr. Perito but if not another Doctor is fine. If there is a group of guys...

Re: 3.5 Weeks Post Op
As far as pain or discomfort goes, I’m back to normal. During the first two weeks, there was significant discomfort, particularly at work. I returned to my desk job on day 6. In hindsight, maybe a week too early. There was never what I would call pain. I plan to try to begin cycling this week. I’m ...

Re: 3.5 Weeks Post Op
Congrats on your recovery! I have a virtual visit with Dr. for follow up this coming Tuesday, 4/14, as I never was allowed the initial follow up in March. Had surgery 3/2, pretty much healed on the outside here, but still uncomfortable doing the sex thing because inside is still healing. Was not in...

Re: 3.5 Weeks Post Op
It is hard to figure out where the pump is when there is still swelling. But the swelling will go down and the pump will be easy to find the release button and the ball to pump her up. I would say four to six weeks. Every person is different and like my revisions, the first revision took six weeks,...

I needed ice for the first week. Now on week two, I ice as needed - much less frequently.

Re: Cost of implant without insurance
I'm not on medicare. I'm self employed. Spoke to my Insurance agent about out of state procedures and his feedback was that it is not an easy thing to get an insurance company to do out of network even WITHIN the home state let alone outside of it. Also mentioned the deductibles were sky high with ...

Re: Cost of implant without insurance
How much does it cost to get an implant paying completely out of pocket? I'm sure amounts can greatly vary but is there at least a range one could expect to pay with someone like Kramer or Eid or Perito? I’m not on Medicare and my insurance has an exclusion clause. Mine was 26K with surgeon, hospit...

Re: Gong Bionic St. Patrick’s Day
After several months of ultrasonic tests and insurance disappointments, I am scheduled for surgery on March 17th. My surgeon is Dr. Tajkarimi in Northern Virginia about 4 hours from my residence. He does up to 5 implants per day and from all appearances has an excellent reputation. He will be impla...
