Something wrong

You would need insurance to cover this? The manufacturer isn’t on the hook for the malfunction?

I think AMS has 10y warranty (Not sure). But anyway the surgery cost will have to be paid.

I think it might depend on how the first implant was paid for. Cash pay, not looking good for surgery costs. If insurance covered the implant the first time. I think that you have better luck getting them to cover the hospital for a failed implant.

My estimate of down time is based on wait time for a implant specialist consult being 2 months. After that we have the insurance pre-op authorization, the insurance appeal, and the second insurance appeal. Then on to surgeon schedule and OR availability. I base this on my initial implant timeline. I was eventually authorized by insurance on my initial implant, but policy and covered procedures may have changed.

I recall the realization that if I smoked, my first procedure would have been covered without the appeal process. They could not identify a root cause of the ED and smoking would have checked that box. Logic does not always apply.

Thanks for the advice and guidance!

I understand surgery cost needs paid, bit the surgery was already paid for and the manufacturer should be on the hook for the second surgery

Can you break the pump by squeezing too hard? Mine feel deformed now and I pump to the max at 3 weeks…been cycling for a week

One way to say it is you have a parts warranty. Not a parts & labor warranty. After saying that. I can't really say that I've read of members paying for the hospital costs for a revision. But remember, most implants end up being done on insurance.
Hospitals & insurance companies are known to be very tight lipped about their finacial dealings.

Edit: You can't break your pump by hand strength only.

What does the pump feel like when you’re maxed out?

Never mind… no one ever responds on here. I talked to my doctor and he says I emptied my reservoir already. Does this mean I’m maxed out as far as regaining size? I’m only 3 weeks post surgery

It had only been an hour since your previous post when you made this one. Most of us don't live on this site but check it periodically when we have nothing else to do. Also, someone indeed responded to your earlier post within a couple of hours and answered both of your questions.

As for your size, you're 8x6? Why are you so worried about gaining more that you keep posting about it? If you get any bigger, the chicks you bang will be so reamed out the rest of us won't be able to touch the sides. If you can't get ‘em off with 8 inches of length and 6 inches of girth, work on your technique and your stamina because your size isn't the issue.

Enormous help as always. I’m losing size. I’m three weeks in and not miles off from where I was immediately before surgery. I was excited about the prospect of getting it back. Not sure why he’d cut it so close with filling the reservoir. Why put in 120cc why not 130?
