JimStein-My Journal

[Biker60]

Good lunch and be positive. I too am out of a relationship. Went through nasty Divorce. I got the kids. I regret that today on many level. Got remarried 3 years ago to a younger lady. Life was great. She died of cancer 6 months after we got married. Then PD. Do I stayed out of the dating world for my heart and mind to heal. But never expected PD. I am 7 days post op. My surgery was in Philadelphia. Healing is going well. Implant some issues. Hope to see a new me in the coming months. Looking forward to using it as I am 59 year young. With a new penis and self confidence as well. Too many things to deal with in 3 years.

Yesterday at 3:00 pm I was done, brought in the recovery room. Got lucky meeting 2 days ago an aquintance after 40 years. He came and pick me up, since I have nobody to rely on.
Got the instructions and I was able to walk by myself. Got the Oxycodone pain medication again now at 2:00 am. Once I have 6 hr of sleep I am awake and I cannot go back to sleep. Pain was tolerable once I woke up after the surgery, but I asked for pain med. Same at home, getting the Oxycodone so I do not have surprises. I will start now to use the cold peas. I will try to figure it out. Did not call Dr. Eid. I am waiting for the next appointment, might be on Monday, who knows. He will tell me then what was done. All I wanted was to get over it. Now is the usual wait and see. Cheers!)

Thank you for the kind words of encouragement!

Lol.. You are the second person on FT who I know had surgery yesterday with Dr Eid... Myself and Magic Mike were also there. I was the lucky one to go first thing in the morning! I actually met Magic Mike in Eids office on the 8th during our pre-op testing. Small world. Anyways I hope you are doing well! Keep us posted.

I saw some guys yesterday at Med Center, and some ladys too. Then I said that they might be in for different procedures. Maybe you were the Asian guy with his partner, an Asian lady.
I am on that strong pain medication and there are no side effects. Pain or any discomfort is gone once I get 2 pills. I do not know about getting hooked to it, I just want to use it to have no pain. Once I feel no need for it, I will stop it.
I was able to get out of bed without much problems and make my own coffee.
Thanks God for the internet to keep me busy.
I hope you guys are ok and pain free. I can't wait to get the jack- strap off to see what's down there. I also hope to enjoy the same benefits you active ones are talking about. Cheers!

No not Asian... And like you I'm down here alone. I left the midtown centre around 1 pm or so, so I may have been gone by the time you arrived. I have similar results as you terms of pain ... Not too bad at the moment. Just trying to stay horizontal and watching some really bad tv

When I woke up I've asked the nurse about time ans she said 3:00pm. Around 4:30 pm I left and I am scheduled for Monday at 9:00 am to see Dr. Eid. At least I am at ease knowing that getting the strong medication I avoid the discomfort. I am a chicken so hopefully after 3 days I can turn to motrin or tylenol. Glad to hear you are not in pain either.
Cheers!

JImStein,

Good luck, I'm watching all 3 of you. I'm going for Cardiac clearance on Tuesday & I saw Dr Eid last month.

Good luck to you too my brother!
Honestly, I put it this way: no erection, no relation!
Now, once I'll heal I have something to look forward, I can have a partner to share life. Waking up everyday not having any hope to have that special partner to give love and receive love is a complete disaster.
You all who got fixed know that this is happiness.

Yesterday at midday I took one tablet of ibuprofen, not that I needed, but for pain prevention. No pain today, 2nd day post op. I will see how I feel later. Try to use the frozen beans on the bottom of my sac. I do not feel the cold. Tomorrow I will use a plastic bag full of hot watter since the bath tub is dirty. I will try also to get the catheter out. I am kind of aprehensive about that. Never had it. I did not eat, but few mini bagels with philadelphia cheese, coffee and water when I am taking the antibiotics. I will try to drink more water thou. Laying flat on the bed is painful and I am afraid to spend too much time standing up.
