Agfa13- My journal, 3-piece, then 1-piece, back to 3-piece.

I sent an email to Dr. Sklar. Pumping is good, getting the hang of it, but releasing is another story. Dr. said he needs to see me because I told him he made things so easy in the office, but I am still having trouble here at home. I can only handle pumping once a day right now, making it last 30 min. or more. The way I see it, he said at least 2X/day, 10 min. per session. I think I am good with the one session until I get the hang of things.

I found being in a hot water bath helped, some guys use a heating pad. Seems to help loosen and ease pain.

[Agfa13]

Taking a bath never helped me...and I am too impatient to take one, lol
Just tried to pump, and it got painful, so released. Maybe pump, but not too much? Does that make a difference in terms of getting my length/girth back?
Still having trouble with the releasing, although, the pumping/release I just did was pretty quick.

[Agfa13]

Have not cycled in 2 days, going to try again. Last time I pumped, immediately started hurting, took rest of day off

[Agfa13]

Okay, all went well with minimal pain.
To those of you more experienced, Dr. said do 2x/day, for 10 min. If I do one time for 30 min., good enough (for now)?

[vajim1]

I have done two times a day myself, yes it hurt like hell to start and over the counter pain meds did not help. I worked my way up to an hour each time and have got all my length back plus more girth (not quite as much as when I would use a ved). The pump release valve is still hard to release at times Last night took me three times to get it to release.
Email me if you like, Jim

[Agfa13]

Tks Jim.
I kinda figured I would have to work up to the hour. Don't think I can do that right now.
I gotta take some pics and post on here of what deflated vs, inflated does. Not much difference in size or angle (well, maybe more on the angle, lol)

[vajim1]

I always heard that the angle of the dangle was inversely proportional to the mass of the ass. LOL
Eager to see the pictures!

[Charlie2019]

You really think so? Because I did not use the whole bottle for the surgery, it was just too much, lol
Will give that a shot tonight.

Or peroxide

[Charlie2019]

Will ride out the weekend. I don't think I have to see him prior to my appt on feb. 3.
Took a shower this AM, feel better, but like I said, will ride out weekend and see.
Yes, it is true, do not want to set myself back even further from getting 3 piece.

My prescription: (Note that I am not any kind of medical professional)

Apply an antibiotic to your surgical site and change dressings/inspect often, at least twice per day. Keep a close eye on it. If redness increases or temperature at the site or your general temperature goes up, call your doctor right away for advice on the next appropriate step.

Yup... remember the old moderator Larry and what happened to him... Septic Shock almost killed him and he lost his implant and had to waid 6 months to get re-implanted... not good.
