what angle is your implant?

I'm not asking for pics or anything...
My doc had me maintain the sustained erection and upward tilt for much less than what I hear is the norm - I was only 2 1/2 weeks rather than the usual 6 weeks. I am curious if it made any difference. When pumped fully, with 90 degrees being horizontal (when standing up), and 0 degrees being pointed straight down, I am about 80 degrees. I'd like to hear from others (I have an LGX). What angle are you under the same conditions - do you believe that the longer duration of having woody pointed straight up was worth it?
Thanks for satisfying my curiosity.

80 is good for 2.5 weeks give it time it will improve.

Thanks - but I am at 2 months now. I was just curious if you guys that kept it up for six weeks turned out differently.

I kept mine upright for about 4 weeks as I recall. I am just about straight horizontal when standing. I think the issue is not having it lean left or right any more than it did naturally. I tended to go left, still do.

4 months post-op, fully inflated mine rests at 55 degrees while I am standing (shaft pointing lightly down).

While I am laying down, fully inflated mine rests at 45 degrees (head pointing toward chest), which is perfect for woman on top position.

Thanks - it sounds like I might have gotten just a bit more upward tilt if I had kept it in place for a longer time. I remember at the time being very happy that my doc only required it to be held up/erect for such a short time (2.5 weeks). I haven't talked with him about it, aside from that he told me that the reason it is kept erect and held upwards for the beginning is to get it to point outward rather than downward. On the other hand, I am not particularly unhappy, it is nearly horizontal standing up. So far, I have been very satisfied and have no regrets.
