(UK) Hospital process / Home recovery

[WestLad]

UK post.

I’m due an Urology appointment in a month’s time.
As someone who has had long term ED (12 years), I seem to have exhausted all options.
I’ve been using injections for 6 years, and now they are failing.
I want to be prepared for a conversation about a possible implant.

I would like to find out about the hospital part of the process under the NHS, as well as afterwards (recovery time etc)

I’m also interested to learn about the impact of an implant on length and girth.

I’m sure someone will have detailed this, so any links to previous posts would be helpful.

I don't know what you think would be different, I was in hospital just under 24 hours and went home on the train, my recovery was without any complications or infection, the only unfortunate side effect of the implant has been that I urinate much more frequently. I was back at work in 6 weeks, if I had a clean, sitting down job, it could have been much less.
As for penis size I couldn't say, but that is another story.

What's the story with the increased urination frequency? I've not heard that before. What could be causing that?

I don't know,but my guess is that the reservoir might be pressing into my bladder and reducing the effective volume, I piss more often and pass less. I have asked around, nobody else around here seems to have noticed this, so it may be completely unrelated.
