Doc said no sex for another 2 weeks for me (implanted infrapubic 1 week ago), and I'm taking that to mean no orgasms...He might not, but I just don't want to fuck around while I'm in pain.
Congrats on the progress with pain and recovery. I've hit a 7-8 now and then (major cramp around the reservoir and groin, could barely breathe), mostly hanging around 1-2 with an occasional 3 or 4 when the tubes kink or my ball moves past the pump (still getting used to the new neighbor in there).
I think as far as the pump goes, I'd be a little worried about the adherence...Even now and then when I'm trying to pump, the pump kind of slips out of my fingers and goes flying up against my ball (I hate it, but have gotten better at preventing it). Honestly if that happens, it'll probably take care of that adherence for you.
Anyway, really glad things are working out! I've got a titan touch 21+1, with DEEP proximal embedding. I'm about 16cm from my pubic bone to my tip, so there's something like 8-9cm of device all up in there. Surgery notes confirm it! Interesting how things end up differently for so many folks!
Take care, and good luck with the healing!
Me and the girlfriend really were thinking that we would have sex before I could walk again
I'm glad the pain is mostly gone now and I'm starting to get the hang of the toy.
The pump adherence seem to be either lessening and/or hasn't been presenting itself as an issue thus far. I'd like to get more experience with finding the deflate button at different scenarios before thinking that the adherence itself is the issue. Inflation is already possible one handed so no issues with that. Let's see what happens within the next 30 days.
I'm impressed that you're already able to cycle 1 week post op. That's fantastic. Congrats! Makes me think that your recovery will be a bit smoother than mine. Good luck with your journey!
