New implant

[Bamaboy101]

I had an AMS 700 CX implanted 2 weeks ago, today by Dr Kramer at his new office at Chesapeake Urology, Hanover, MD. Very painful healing process, with some serious bruising, but healing nicely.

I am a 68 year old, who suffered peyronie’s and ED. Lost length and girth from the PD.

Dr Kramer told me I could try a few pumps every couple of days. Tried the first today...4-5 pumps. I don’t know how many are the correct number, but I will learn. If the results that seem to show today are the “results”, I don’t think I will be that happy with the results, but it is what it is, until someone comes up with a “breakthrough” procedure.

As for Dr Kramer, he was a great doctor...very genuine and concerned. He came by my hotel after the procedure to remove the bandages, etc, and gave me his personal cell phone number for any questions.

I just hate to have gone through all this pain, if the results are going to be as they appear.

Good luck with your recovery.
I think you can pump as much as you want as long as it's not painful.

You will also probably gain length as time goes on.

Patience is needed to make it through the healing process. Implant surgery is traumatic for the penis. It is going to take a while to know for sure what your results will be. My penis was 4.5” after surgery, but by the 6 month mark it was back up to my lifelong 6.5” length I had prior to losjng length from Prostatectomy surgery, long term ED, and age.

At your stage your penis is in recovery mode, just trying to heal from the shock of the surgery. Once it has recovered more it will loosen up and be able to stretch when you pump up.

Thanks a bunch for the input. I know it is very early, and I feel fortunate that I can pump at all, only 2 weeks after surgery. I also have an Artificial Urinary Sphincter implanted. It is much easier to manipulate that the penis pump.

Tried pumping 4-5 pumps yesterday and today. Much more difficult than AUS pump...very hard to squeeze, and painful when it slips and you pinch your scrotum.

I do not know what the final result will be, but it appears much shorter than the PD had already shortened it to, and it still bends upward and to the right.

Waiting for the healing to be complete... thanks again.

As I try to get more used to pumping and cycling the MS pump, I find that there is a “knot” of tubing on the right side of the penis, near the base. I tried moving the pump around a bit, but it does not change anything.

Anyone else have a issue with the tubing in that area, or similar? Was the doctor able to smooth it out, or is that the way it remains?

Hey bamaboy I have the same thing with the tubing that you do I have had my implant since December 2018 and it has not bothered anything my lady can ride me cowgirl and it doesn't hurt it is just where the tubing from the pump attaches to the cylinders.
