transient daily pain...how long does it last?

So...10 weeks post surgery - AMS 700CX - and I continue to experience transient pain while flaccid...along the shaft of the penis, at the tip of the cylinders, and around the pump. It happens frequently during the day, and only lasts a couple of minutes each time, but they can be pretty intense pain...

Re: Insurance Denial

So...had my implant 4/3. Expressed surprise to my doctor about how fast Cigna approved it and he said it was routine so long as it was done at the hospital and not their (Urology Practice) surgery center. Got an invoice from the hospital for $45,000 two days ago...my plan booklet doesn't cover treat...

Re: Implant model as a factor in regaining size

Atranger: you’ve said you have a 21 cm CX. Any RTEs?

Did they do you infrapubic or penoscrotal?

What measurement are you providing? Really, the only one that matters is Bone Pressed Erect Length.


No RTEs

Infrapubic

I’m using Flaccid Stretched length and length when using a vacuum pump.

Implant model as a factor in regaining size

So, back on the topic of lost inches…I’m down from a bit over 6” to a bit over 4”. I’m only about three weeks out and cycling every day, but someone posted something that made me curious. I have an AMS700 cx 21 cm. A few folks said growth is expected but someone posted that the cx just doesn’t allow...

Re: Lost size?!?

Thanks - I realize 4" is better than the nada I had going into surgery but it's a good thing to think it'll end up somewhere closer to "normal".
