Reservoir palpable ?
Reservoir palpable ?
After my procedure on day 2 post op, I noticed a palpable object just right of the base ( 2 inches away) of the penis at about 1030 location along the inguinal crease. Is that the tubing or part of the reservoir? I got a AMS 700 ms. Any similar experiences?

Re: Reservoir palpable ?
There are lymph nodes in the inguinal crease that can swell with a hard BM or anal irritation. Reservoir shouldn't be palpable and 2 inches lateral from penis seems far lateral for tubing. I can feel mine if pushing but close to base of penis. If tender or increasing in size call your surgeon but may just be normal lymph nodes you just noticed. Have doc check if painful or not going away just to be reassured.

Thanks for your input
Re: Reservoir palpable ?
Got a reasonable answer from Dirtman1993 about the reservoir so you guys with similar issues can refer to his show and tell update posts.

My reservoir is palpable, it was put in subcutaneously because I have a mesh bladder suspension post prostatectomy. I can feel the reservoir in the lower abdomen on the right about halfway between the mid line and my side. It is just above the pubic hair line, no where near the penis.

Seems I have similar location, on the side sort of on the inguinal crease midline.
Re: Reservoir palpable ?
Good to get feedback since it wasn't mentioned by the doctors who saw me. I got a bit anxious. But appears a variant that is expected
Re: Reservoir palpable ?
1 doctor told me he could not find my reservoir. 1 said it is moving. I could see a slight bulge to the left of my navel at first, then it kept moving lower to now I think it is between the penis and navel center line. When I pump up my penis it is like there is a hollow spot there now by feel. At a glance you see no sign. Tubing is small, maybe 3/16". You can feel it and follow it's length in a line everywhere including where the go into the penis cylinders and down the inside of the penis to where they attach to the bottom of the cylinder. At least they are straighter now and do not zig zag back and forth across the cavernosa now. Straightening out seems to have given some relief and resolved the having to move the penis back and forth every few pumps to get it to pump.

Re: Reservoir palpable ?
Have not been able to find my reservoir, when I asked he said he put it behind a bone.
I am seven months Post-Op, i.e., all swelling is gone. Now I am able to feel the tubing. No problems with it just know there is some extra stuff down there. When flaccid can feel where the cylinders are attached as two small bulges on each side of my lower shaft. The bulges go away when inflated.
