6 hrs post op!

[Steely74]

Had my Titan implanted about 6 hrs ago by Professor David Ralph in London. Sat up in bed now having eaten and drank with mild to no pain. I realise the the op pain relief is still present but so far so good. Implant is to treat peyronies curve. Will keep posting my progress.

Congrats! All the best. Will be very interested to hear how things progress as I’m London-based, also.

NHS or private?

Went private in the end as waiting list is quite long at the moment and my BMI is a little high so can’t go on waiting list unless I lost about a stone in weight. Had it done at the Edward 7th Hospital.

I too am struggling with the weight issue since Covid. Has NHS restricted this treatment for chubsters due to increased risk? If they tried this in the US there would be a riot….at a McDonald’s probably!

[Steely74]

They need BMI to be 30 or less.

So 26 hrs post op. No pain during the night. Catheter & drainage removed slight sting but not for long size looks same as pre op. Now for 4 he train journey. So far so good !

Now 2 days post op. 4 the train journey wasn’t a problem but I took it very steady. Slight discomfort today around site where reservoir has been placed, also slight discomfort around stitches and discomfort due to implant being slightly inflated. But all of this very minor and no pain whatsoever when layed still.

Sounds good, congratulations!

Hi' I've seen dr ralph a couple of times and i'm now considering which surgery to have for an 80 degree curvature. Did you have an excision and graft as well as an implant?
