2 Surgeries in 4 months. Maybe 3. A story about F*ckups

Definitely pain when inflated, from the cylinder stabbing through my corpora and into my glans, but also just discomfort all the time as the tip of the implant now has (I believe) broken through the corpora and sits inside the glans 24/7. Extremely thin glans tissue on this cylinder (right side), cylinder tip is very easily feelable right underneath the thinned glans skin.

Same problem that FMLFML85 is having here I think: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=26084

Have you considered a revision to fix the erosion? That might fix you

It's been hard for me to get a doctor to agree it's eroded. Not an easy way to determine if the cylinder is still safely in the corpora or whether it's eroded into the glans, at least not until the very late stage when the cylinder is starting to come out of the glans as well. I may try to get an MRI to have that as evidence that it's extruded

Feel free to get an MRI, it's quite cheap outside of the USA and you can actually request the original files and look at your penis in all sorts of different angles in your own computer. Be prepared for mri operators and regular mri doctors not having a clue at what they are looking at (they are not used to looking at implants). But if you get the original files you can look at them for yourself and bring them to your actual implant doctor. That's what I did for myself as I didn't trust at all when I was told "this is just your anatomy and nothing we can do about it" when It was a clear case of wrong placement of the implant

I need to do the same thing for my implant Dr. but can't find another dr who will order the MRI without a valid medical reason. My fear about having the wrong implant installed are not enough.

It depends where you live, but for example in Turkey were i did it, you don't need someone to order it, you can just walk in and say "hello i want an MRI" and pay $250. I can even recommend a place if anyone is planning/willing to go to turkey

When I hear stories of the implant not even reaching the glans, I wonder if the surgeon used traction sutures to pull the implants into the glans.

You can tell it was done if you had "snake eyes" the small wounds near the end of the glans.

So that's a good sign, then. Good

Discovernew,

So sorry for everything that has happened to you. What is your plan in the future? Get a 3rd revision? Wait it out? Will you still consider going to the same surgeons, or try going to the US next time (even if they do not have Rigicon... seems like you would want your 3rd time to be "the charm"). Best of luck!
