Possible infection

[Larry10625]

Calm buddy, you still don't know for sure what it is. It isn't the first time I read people who got some fever after the surgery and had no infection, somewhere I read that if it doesn't reach 39 it is not safe it's an infection.

Besides how is the scrotum pump? Is it stuck or is it loose?

My doctors weren't concerned until my temp hit 40. Lower than that was referred to as a low grade temp and was treated with topical antibiotic creams and Tylenol.

I’m so happy to hear that your markers are normal. The elevated BP is typical of someone in a stressful situation, just how high it was I’m sure reflects how stressed you were.

Heal up now. And then you need to get to the bottom of what happened. They have literally no choice but to comply and divulge all information. Most NHS hospitals have what’s known as PALS (patient advice liaison service) for all enquiries.

Hope you get your answers! More importantly though, get better!!

Agreed.

Well this seems to have been the longest 3 weeks of my life. Things are now however improving and healing nicely. I cant believe 2 weeks ago the wound had completely dehisced and come apart. I have a follow up appointment next Thursday where I can start cycling the device (that will be 5 weeks after surgery)
I will start a new thread and compare the differences first hand between the previous Titan and this AMS product for those that are interested after then.

Thanks again for everyone's support and comments

As a person who has had an infection I am happy to see things are looking up for you. Looking forward to your comparison thread.

Thanks Limpbizcit

I guess my biggest worry at the moment is what happens when I finish the antibiotics (just over 1week left of course)

I am panicked there may be infection lurking even though everything is healing well, no discharge at all, no pain. No tethering of parts and I can now inflate and deflate ok.

Did you have symptoms whilst you were taking antibiotics?

They would come and go. I would go a few days with nothing and then the discharge would return.

I crossed to see what's going ,
well i just panicked & felt like i'm in the same situation , as a non medical professional , it was skin infection that's all , it would spread to all the area if it's possible but don't worry everything is fine now .
Listen , you can do something else to avoid everything related to infection.

I had infection before in my lowest finger from a surgery and i drunk this.
Within 2 days everything became fine but i was in that time 12 years old.
It's effective anti-infection & speed the healing process & it's a part of my plan when i will have an implant.
