Hello fellow ED brothers,

My first post here after reading this forum up and down for a few years, thanks everyone for sharing!

My story is like many others here, I am 56 years old and have been suffering from ED for the past 20+ years or so. After a lot of internet research and encouraged by the experience of FT board members I initially planned to have the implant done roughly 2 years ago, unfortunately the pandemic then came along, and I had to wait things out.

I’m a Scandinavian expat living and working in Southeast Asia and since I want to minimize the time off from work due to the surgery, I have chosen to have the implant at the Bangkok Pattaya Hospital here in Thailand. Since I am also paying for this out of my own pocket, avoiding overseas travel by finding a local doctor made a lot of sense to the business case.

The hospital gives the choice of AMS 700 CX and the Titan Touch, I have decided to go with the Titan. Next week is the big day with medical clearance on 27th and then surgery on 28th October. I will be staying at the hospital for one night and hopefully back to Bangkok on 29th to catch the English Premier League games from the sofa in my living room.

Good for you, man. ... Wow, had to wait two years, because of the pandemic? Yeah, I hadn't thought of that. Nicely done! That, itself, is an achievement.

Wish you the best. Keep us updated!

Welcome! I hope the surgery and your recovery go well.

Thanks mate, two years ago I was living in Jakarta Indonesia and the plan was to travel to Bangkok for the surgery. Travels in the region was then pretty much shut down from Feb 2020 until May 2022, so I didn't have much choice other than to wait.

Don't know if I'd trust them to do this type surgery. Do they have a high volume surgeon? Pls keep us informed as to your progress.
