My journal to getting my AMS 700 LGX,

Postby hectorm64 » Thu Mar 11, 2021 1:05 am

Hey Guys,
First, Thank you so much to all of you for sharing your experience with us. Your comments, discussions, caring, advice...etc changing men's life for the best. I will do the same.
Tomorrow March 11 at 8 am is the big day. I am getting my implant with Dr Shawn Blick, Phoenix AZ. He has some video in YouTube.
I was lost, I thought, my sex life was over, I was very depressed, all medications stopped working for me, then, on new year 2021 day, I was researching online about ED and bingo, I found you guys. since them, I dedicated two or three hours everyday to read you guys experience, read all penile implant studies, doing VED therapy, researching my insurance, looking for the best surgeon in AZ. I thought, if these guys are so happy with an implant, I can do this.
I had appointments with some good surgeons in AZ but Dr Blick is very confident and caring, great personality and no in a rush. We made that connection Patient/Doctor needed to work together, BTW in our first appointment he commented wow you know more than me. I thought FrankTalk speaking" LOL..
Guys wish me luck, I am no nervous, I am so happy. I will be a complete man again.
I will share my experience with you guys
Good night.

Cut the poor guy some slack for not posting yet...he just had surgery yesterday! I was basically "out of it" for the first 24 hours after surgery and was in considerable pain on the 2nd day post-op. As I recall, I wasn't feeling up to posting at all during the first week.
Implanted 5/6/20 by Dr. Jesse Mills at UCLA; AMS 700 LGX 18 cm w/2 cm RTEs. I'm 76 & fit but had ED for 20 years. Pills/injections ultimately failed, including 3 ER trips for Priapism; Shockwave & embryonic stem cell therapies didn't help either.
