Well, that's it guys. I'm bionic! Sitting in my room recovering. Feeling no pain and doing everything I can to keep my eyes open. Will be going home tomorrow morning. When I saw the doctor this morning he said that if when he opens me up and sees a mesh where the double hernia was repaired 37 years ago and the mesh goes all the was arcross, he would have to use the two piece unit. I have not seen him yet so I don't know what I have. But damn man, I'm floating. Ill give andate later on.

The doctors assistant just came in to see me. She told me I did get the AMS 700 LGX.
That's the one I wanted.

Thanks Charlie! Dr. Michael O'Neill told my wife that the implant went really good. The nurses have been wonderful! CMS Main is a top notch hospital. All in all, a great experience. Not really in any pain, but they drugged me up good.
Many Thanks to FT. I don't know if I would have done this if It were not for the FT members! Will be leaving the hospital tomorrow morning.

Nurse took the catheter out, (ouch) And the doctors assistant was just here, and unwrapped it. It's sticking up. It looks a little short. She said it is because Of the swelleness! Got to be honest, a little disappointed.
