Implant seems to have failed 10 days after surgery

[Old Guy]

Dear bionic brothers
Today I celebrate birthday and Christmas together. My pump is not broken! Dr Hakky was able to take a look and it was "just" an air bubble that had blocked the valve system. With a few quick pumps and proper positioning, the bubble can be popped, everything is running again. Still not ideal to have air in the system, but at least better than the implant was defective already. I'm honestly just relieved. Thanks to everyone who had sent me words of encouragement. This community is just awesome.

That is Awesome! Glad Dr. H fixed you up and NO surgery!

That’s great news Swiss! Collective sigh of relief from the bionic brotherhood today.

let's hope it's the right time, who was the doctor who did your implant

Mine was done by Dr Saneal Rajanahally at Urology of Greater Atlanta ( UGA ) main office in Stockbridge Ga. He will be doing the revision as well, he's done a lot of them so I really don't think it's anything he did, I'm thinking faulty component. He filled reservoir to capacity ( the whole 100cc ) and it was the conceal reservoir.
Right now I can feel the implants in my penis and one feels like it's deflated and the left one feels as though it's partially inflated, btw when deflated or just partially inflated, are you supposed to feel hard bumps or places along the implant? These spots feel sorta like the tip that's in the glans.
Plus I've noticed that when I give a firm squeeze of the bulb, it almost feels as though fluid releases or pops out around the deflate block on the pump. It's a really weird sensation so it might just be the pump switching to inflate mode, but whatever hopefully they'll tell me what exactly failed on the system after the surgery.
I'm not completely sure but a Dr Lopez ( whose been doing these implants since the 70's ) at the same firm wanted to be there when the surgery is done as well - but I'm not sure if he will be or not. He told me and Dr Raj that he wanted to help and be there so we'll see. Anyway I'll post a update maybe Thursday evening.

good luck my friend, when i read these things i get nervous

Ok Dr said my left implant had a hole, asked if had done a Trimix injection, I said no. Thinking to myself that's why I got the implant... But I'm thinking he meant right side because I could feel the implant and the left side felt partially inflated while the right side felt flat. Man this time though, while in recovery felt like I was kick in the scrotum and hurts like heck where the reservoir is.
