Another surgery for me on 12/26
Re: Another surgery for me on 12/26
Glad to hear things went easy, it sounds a good deal easier than the total implantion. So, no waiting 6 weeks to activate like the orginal. I might see my doc in a month or two and go for completly dry. I Think my aus is slightly less effective than ti was at first, I am now at two years. So no catheter for a day And you left the hospital activated? My doctor is Dr. Boone at methodist, houston.
age 74 married, Robotic RP Dec.2009. Implanted Jan 2011 with AMS 700LGX and AMS 800 AUS. (AMS 1500). IPP failed March 2018 , leak. Planning an AUS revision (total replacement) in 2018, now I need the IPP too.

AUS working perfectly now. 100% continent now for first time in 3 1/2 years.
Talked to Doc about possibly IPP revision to clean out scar tissue and insert second LGX cylinder. Looks like I may go for that this summer. Tired of surgeries right now.
IPP works great, although short and only one side. Takes about 8 pumps to fully inflate. 3 1/2 months post implant and still have soreness on full inflation.

Remember that a revision without replacing the implant has an incremented probability of infection. Do it only if you are not satisfied and be sure that they do the mini-salvage procedure (combination of 5 different antibiotics +hidrogen peroxide+iodine) to prevent infection.
Good luck!
