Implant has failed after 7 years of erections

Postby GRIPITRIPIT » Thu Jun 29, 2023 6:19 pm

Implanted by Dr. Gerard Henry in 2016 with an AMS 700 MS series . A couple of weeks ago the pump failed it will not inflate, either the tube coming from the reservoir has disconnected from the pump or the bulb is faulty, hard to tell . I do know a revision or a repair is next . My problem is Dr. Henry is a high volume implant Doc , because of this the scheduler at his office has my first appointment set for Sept 22 ,,I am almost sure surgery will follow later after the consult. Then the 4 to 6 weeks after surgery before sex . Without the ability to cycle I am probably going to lose some length and girth . My question is ; what can I do to give “Uncle Herman “ a fighting chance at redeeming is former statues . It’s gonna be a long time before “Uncle Herman “ gets happy again . Any suggestion s are welcome !!! Help !!

IMHO...
Start using a VED, regularly, if the doctor says it's OK.
