Re: Libido and IPP
For me the libido boost came from the confidence in knowing I would be able to perform and didn’t have the stress of doing the injection. Sex is never far from my mind when a perfect hard-on is just seconds away.

Re: Trouble cycling.
I have an appointment with him the second week of January. The NP I saw on my initial follow up did mention that occasionally they need to give a patient a little sedation and aggressively pull down on the pump to move it back into a better spot. I think part of the reason for the upward migration i...

Re: Trouble cycling.
When I have tried pulling down on the pump it doesnt seem to change position at all. It sits only slightly lower than the testicles and behind the left one. I can't get ahold of the bulb without reaching pretty high up especially on the back.

Trouble cycling.
Was cleared on Tuesday this past week to begin cycling and was given the instruction of how to do so. I have been easily able to feel the pump for the first 4 weeks and have done my best to keep it pulled down per the Doc's instructions but it seems to ride a bit higher now. I did my first solo pump...

Re: Bionic brotherhood, here I come.
Had my first follow-up appointment this morning at 27 days from getting my implant. Saw the NP as the Dr. had other surgeries scheduled today. Everything looks great according to her.......incisions are well healed and swelling is minimal to non-existent at this point. Pump placement is a little pos...

Re: Bionic brotherhood, here I come.
Made it through the first week. Finished the antibiotics with no sign of infection. Have spent most of the last 7 days in a reclined position icing religiously. Some mild pain at the incision that feels more like stretching and pulling when I move the wrong way. Right side of the glans is still numb...

Re: Bionic brotherhood, here I come.
72 hours in; Seem to have a little more soreness today. The biggest issue is the 30-40% pump that reminds me of the feeling of a trimix shot that lasted too long (but not nearly as bad). My surgeon recommends gently pulling on the pump as soon as you can feel it but this causes a little testicular p...

He's been great! I have been seeing him for a few years for the ED and had no idea he was as high volume as he is. The staff at the hospital all talked about how awesome he is to work with.

Re: Bionic brotherhood, here I come.
Thanks for the words of encouragement. Yes, I'm eager to know how the finished product will look and feel but I trust you guys who have been through it and I'm committed to staying the course. My goal is to post before (as in before ED took hold) and after pics. One of the hardest parts of the decis...

Re: Bionic brotherhood, here I come.
48 hour update: Discharged and home yesterday morning. Mostly just sore with some occasional pain in the scrotum on the left side near where I can feel the pump. I gently explored the area and was able to feel the pump and the block with the release valve but didn't really try to figure out which si...
