Re: Implanted and working through recovery
Downunder, Wish you the best success with Dr. Christine. I was on his website a bunch earlier this year, and he was under serious consideration, until I found out the Dr. Knoll would take me, perhaps because I was already a patient of his. My understanding is that Dr. Dean Knoll helped train Christi...

Re: Number of pumps with a AMS CX
Implanted on 4/7/21 so almost 3 weeks post op. Per Dr’s guidance, I began a 3-week cycling regiment one week and a day after surgery when I was cleared for hot baths. After almost 3 weeks post op, following are my observations (valid or invalid as they may be): ⋅ In 3-5 slow pumps, as full...

Re: How long was cycling painful for you?
Implanted on 4/7/21 so almost 3 weeks post op. Dr. said he was aggressive with respect to cycling, and to start a 3-week regimen as soon as I felt comfortable doing so. Since he cleared me for hot baths a week after surgery, thought I would try at that time. On the second day in a bath, I was able t...

Re: Implanted and working through recovery
rjdoan, Going back eight weeks, what is your recollection about the ease of pumping up? I trust it will get better for me, so just checking about your experience. Looking forward to the implant becoming a normal part of my body. As of now, the two old tentants below are objecting to an unwanted squa...

Re: Implanted and working through recovery
Post Pop Day 9 — Deflation Pop (for AMS users) I felt the deflation pop indicating fluid transfer from the cylinders to the reservoir! Yeah. As widely demonstrated, I squeezed my penis to force more saline from the cylinders. Understandably, the “flaccid” result was no where as small as it used to ...

Re: Implanted and working through recovery
Post Op Day 8 — Attempted deflation Past few days have consisted of lots of rest, icing, and watching hairs grow back. Lots of colors, many of which have started to dissipate. Balls started to itch, and gentle rubbing/scratching helped. Otherwise surgical area still tender. Today is the day the doc...

Re: Implanted and working through recovery
Day +3 Everything was going as expected, I guess, but at the end of the day, and it seemed "all of a sudden", my scrotum had doubled in size. I was icing "as directed" which was minimal directions, "20 minutes every couple hours or so." I don't know if ice should preve...

Implanted and working through recovery
Got my implant on 7 Apr 21 by Dr. Dean Knoll in Nashville. He also performed Peyronie’s surgery on me about 1½ years ago. I still remember when a couple nurses in different departments told me (unsolicited) that patients from around the world have traveled to him for help. Same thing happened this t...

Re: Sore scrotum
My turn on 7 Apr, also AMS 700 (CX for me) and the pump is to go on the right, not in the middle. Looks like I have a lot to look forward to. Seriously, I will be glad to have it done.

Joining the Brotherhood
Greetings from a newcomer. I am scheduled for IPP surgery in Nashville with Dr. Dean Knoll on April 7, 2021. Since discovering franktalk early Feb 2021, I have been inhaling information from anywhere and everywhere including Youtube videos showing surgeries. In terms of my history, I developed PD in...
