Take 2-A

It's now been 14 months since my botched implant was put in and removed 21 days later.
I've been able to find a new kick-@ss doc at UCSF Medical Center, who has been doing follow-up care with me for the past year.
We've decided to first tackle a painful knot of scar tissue that formed right after the first implant was removed, just at the base of the glans.
Shockingly, my insurance just approved this out of network procedure without me having to jump through a series of hoops... so surprising that even my primary care doctor was blown away that she didn't have to write a lengthy letter outlining why I need to see this particular urologist.
So scar tissue snip-snip is set for April 24th. Hopefully it will be an out-patient event. But the urologist is smart in not promising anything and said he'll cut me loose that day if NOTHING goes wrong. Fair enough.
We'll then see how the healing process goes and if it looks good, I'm aiming for implant #2 in mid August. So here is hoping all goes well and I'll be sporting a bionic boner by the fall!!!
