Well its day three post-op. Still swollen and sore, but I slept much better last night. My wife actually looked at it last night and smiled. That made my day... feeling better already. Thanks guys for all the encouragement.

Hey, she's smiling already. That's a REALLY good sign. Best wishes for continued recovery!

Hello all,
it's day 4 post-op. Had the catheter removed this morning. What a relief! The doc says he's leaving it half inflated till at least next week when I go in for two week check up. I asked if it was alright to leave it inflated like that. He said no problem, that some docs leave them inflated 100% the whole six weeks post-op, but the guy usually spends the time on pain meds. Not much pain today. Scrotum about grapefruit size, but not painful except for the occasional pinch feeling when I sit the wrong way. He has me on vitamins E, D3, C, B12, and L-Arginine. He says these promote good healthy tissue and circulation.

Hi bluis6214
Thank you for the update.
Wish you fast recovery and successful usage.
Can I ask who your doctor is and which implant you get?

Hello all,
Today is day six post-op. Sleeping better each night... No pain meds all day yesterday only last night to make sure I slept. Started alternating warm and cold compresses to help the bruising go down. The lowest part of my scrotum still a dark shade of purple. Penis is still sore in spots... having it inflated doesn't seem to be helping with that I can feel the tips of the cylinders pressing against the base of the glans. From what I've read here it takes awhile to get used to that. Wow its hard to believe a week has almost gone by. By the way I measured my length and girth yesterday. Length: 5.5". Girth: 6". I'm not sure how much of the girth is swelling or from part inflated. My understanding is that the LGX can expand in length and girth. We'll see what happens

Today is day 8 post-op,
Almost discomfort free. I'm sure that will ease once I'm cmpletely deflated. Ran a few errands yesterday. No problems driving, no pain meds. My wife touched it last night. She was happy with how natural it feels. She asked how soon before we could use it. We both laughed. Feeling better everyday about this decision.

Hello all,
Today is day 9 post-op
No pain at all... slept well. Swelling almost all gone. Would insert a pic but don't know how. Anyone know how to do that? Looking forward to two check up, and letting the "air out" lol
Thanks... Dr. Lipschults and staff.
