I'm going Steve Austin

Postby Odecko » Sat Dec 11, 2021 7:07 pm

Good Day Gentlemen,

I am scheduled to go bionic on Tuesday. I have read many threads and feel that I am 100 times more prepared than a few weeks ago. However, I have a few concerns. I had my pre-surgery exam. Doctor initially mentioned the Titan 22 cm and has changed to a 20 cm-21 cm. My flaccid is horrible,(which is what he say when i had my cystoscopy but my pumped size is a very close 6.75 inches to 7.00 inches depending on the temperature of the room. If I am in the tub (Hydromax 7) I get good pumped size. If I am using a hand held I am stretched more... up to 7 inches but the pain can be a bit unbearable for a 10 minute session. What size (Titan) should I expect? (I want the 22 cm-because we all know the larger the better) ...but I would rather have an erection than a large limp lazy phallus ...any thoughts?

I am traveling to Atlanta, GA from Birmingham, AL and have a room just under a mile from my surgeon. Any suggestions on what to do while waiting for my Post exam ? (which is two days later)...I read Tangerine's experience and I am pretty much using it as a guide. Any other suggestions.

I will get a better measurement tonight and will report back...

THANKS GENTLEMEN...FT has saved my marriage and my life... 8-)

You are what you are!The Urologist knows how to size you for the correct implant and make sure it’s a good fit.You will probably loose an inch like I did but I gained it back with cycling and using my VED post op.I didn’t start that Untill about month four.Good like and use a lot of ice those first two weeks.You will do great!

The only measurements that will make any difference are the ones in surgery. Util the doctor opens you up and measures inside all the other stuff is just guess work.

I just sleep a lot the first few days. Or I was on my computer (I have Kindle ap) or watching tv. Just not much else I did other than icing, and wound care. I had food for meals and drinks already in my hotel room. I was in bed a lot of that time.

I'm having a revision with Dr Hakky 12/28. He said I could remove the drain myself if I didnt want to stick around. Are you staying near his office or the hospital?

The wife and I will be staying near his office, just a few blocks away. I didn't want to stay around, but was encouraged to do so by her...Just in case complications appear...I have tad bit of anxiety. Not in a bad way though...Just a bit anxious. Although I have read everyone else's story...I am unsure how mine will differ... After two years-I am ready to regain a physical relationship...

Hanging around your medical provider is a valid strategy. Hopefully an unneeded one. Ok, so it costs a bit of money for the room, food & maybe some parking. Relax, enjoy some alone time with your wife. Hug & cuddle some. This might be the first steps in getting your intimate life back on track. Good luck, you got this handled.

good luck. With Dr Hakey you are in good hands. You need a break as being 50 and already having an RP. Heal well.

So far so good...So i had my install today, Moderate pain but not unbearable. Dr. Hakky installed a 24 cm Titan 1 cm RTE. I am wrapped like a mummy with no feeling in my glans. Scrotum feels heavy. i also have a drain. I have taken 1 Gabapentin 300 mg for the pain. I am resting and icing. I am finally a member of the club.

Wanted to give a quick update.

Thanks again gentlemen.
