Well what a crappy way to spend my birthday... in the hospital.
As I had posted earlier, the right cylinder of my implant shifted out of place and was in danger of poking through the skin. Thankfully no pain, but surgery got rushed and set in just 6 days!
It would seem because of all the scar tissue in the shaft, two bits of tissue had continued to calcify and grow due to the cylinder rubbing against them. I of course had felt the knots of tissue, but they never hurt and well... they kinda felt good rubbing against the shaft when uh... self pleasuring.
But it would seem that they were not only growing and turning hard, but developing cells similar to bone! The doc said the larger of the two was actually the size of a molar tooth! Followed by the joke... "I removed your boner" OY!
Surgery took nearly 4 hours instead of the 2 he expected. But glad he didn't try to rush through things and he was able to move the cylinder back into position and kept the implant from having to be removed.
The incision was circumcision style, nearly all the way around the head... thankfully he didn't remove my foreskin!!! That would have been insult to injury to wake up nipped at the tip! Post-op pretty much sucked... over night in the hospital on IV antibiotics, the usual painful removal of the catheter this morning (HATE THOSE THINGS), and the usual roller coaster of pain meds that don't really work, due to a past addiction to Fentynol... LOL and of course what do they pump you full of before surgery... Fentynol!!! So now getting to deal with the body aches and shakes of withdrawals. I highly recommend avoiding an addition to high grade opiates! But if I could beat it once, I can get past it again
Now about a month of serious tenderness as the stitches heal up, and about 6 weeks until I'm allowed to try pumping it back up. Just have to do my best to keep the head dry so the stitches don't become infected. At least I can shower in a day and get that post hospital feeling off of my skin!
Now to pack, cause I have to do an 11 hour flight to the Netherlands on Thursday. Oh h#ll that flight is going to be long and painful. Bring on the free drinks!
Including a pic just after the catheter came out.
