Just hung up from getting verification of implant surgery....I am Carl...67 year old male..tried all the pills and pumps...nothing has worked in the last 2 years...Started reading about implants...and decided this was the answer...I am in Texas..Livingston...about 80 miles north of houston...Read all I could about Doc's in the area and decided on Dr. Larry Lipshultz...He is considered the best in this area...Had a visit Dec. 7th and he said I am a perfect candidate for a implant...He did send me to a cardioligist as I have a-fib...to get clearance...that went well ..and today set surgery date for Feb. 12th at St. Lukes.. Very nervous right now...but want to get this over and get my sex life back..so life is "normal"..Frank Talk has been very helpful and has eased my mind... My health is good...never actually been in the hospitial for surgery until last year...Had partial knee replacement on both knees..both were one night stay over and both went very well...knees were in terrible shape..now they are perfect...hope this goes as well...will let Frank Talk know how it goes..Carl

I got a great outcome with Dr. Lipshultz. I would say that the fit of my implant was just about prefect. I lost about 3/4" at the start but I gained all of that back after the first year. I got the AMS 700LGX but I think he does a lot of titians too. He sugested going to a larger girth that would automatically mean getting the Titian, but my wife prefered the estimated girth that the lgx would produce so that's what I got. Either way I would have benn happy.

Congratulations on your up-coming Penile Implant Carl.
I was implanted with the Coloplast Titan in December 2007 after developing ED Post-Prostatectomy in 2004.
The Implant completely corrected my ED and restored my sex life and the emotional bond with my wife of 45 years.
My wife and I both love my Titan Implant and have enjoyed it to the fullest for the past 5 years and counting.
Wishing you a lifetime of enjoyment with your up-coming Implant.
Best of Luck,
Bob

Hi Tankerman,
As I previously posted in this thread:
I was implanted with the Coloplast Titan in December 2007 after developing ED Post-Prostatectomy in 2004.
The Implant completely corrected my ED and restored my sex life and the emotional bond with my wife of 45 years.
My wife and I both love my Titan Implant and have enjoyed it to the fullest for the past 5 years and counting.
The pros of my Implant are clearly stated above and, personally, I have not found any cons in the past 5+ years since
my Titan Implant Procedure.
Feel free to contact my via PM or e-mail if you would like to discuss thissubject further.
At the end of the day, just as it was for me, the final decision is yours and yours alone!!
Best of Luck,
Bob

You don't consider loss of length, girth and having a plastic block in your scrotum a con?

Tankerman, two important pieces of advice:
1. Read as much as you can about implants on FrankTalk, and
2. Find a surgeon who does a high volume of implants in order to maximize the likelihood of the best possible outcome.
