Hi guys, I have a question I am four weeks out. My doctor told me that everything looks fine and he said to used.
Last Monday I saw him becaouse I was concerned with the FOLD and also told him that my shaft hurt.
I am able to pump it up 100% and keep it like for twenty minutes but after that I need to take a Tylenol.
My Dr advice me to take a Tylenol before sex.
I would like to ask you guys when you think I can try.
Last week I try without taken Tylenol and the pain was like a "10" and I had to stop.
I am very happy with my new toy when I PUMP IT UP IT IS LIKE A STEEL ROD.
I am very happy to be in here because we are the one whom really know about the implant.
When they remove my PROSTATE many years ago they told me I will lose maybe 25%.
I was never told that after several years I will have permanent ED.
What I mean is that DR will tell you what they think will happen after surgery.
In my opinion,DR should be part of FORUM like this; so they can have a better understanding of what is going on.

I totally agree that doctors should be members of Franktalk. It would enabled them to understand there patients better and be a better doctor overall. I hav3 never thought about this but next time I see my Urologist I am going to mention it to him. At least invite him to log on and become a member. Thanks for your post!

I was 6 weeks before I got the go ahead and really didn’t have any pain. I did have some discomfort at first but it didn’t last too long. Now I’m banging away!

My doctor scheduled my return visit for six weeks! He made it very clear step one six weeks healing, then step two activation cycling etc. As someone who has just come through this six weeks process do you agree with it? Just curious as to what you think!

I've had that conversation. But they end up being brief ones. Dr. Karpman is aware of FT. I think that he may of even read some of it. He quickly mentioned what he felt was the short commings. For the most part I recognize his feelings. I suspect that people that "are in the business" don't find the layman's method of trading information as interesting. Meaning, their minds are more geared towards technical style writing. Like research papers.
My primary doctor said that he isn't surprised that there is an ed forum because there's forums for everything now days. Funny thing, he seems to of heard of Karpman but I'm at a loss as to how he would of heard of him. Karpman is a specialist & over 800 miles away. I wouldn't think that they'd even show up at the same seminars due to their different field's.
We are on our own on this. We can only march forward.
