5 Years

Postby philly444 » Thu Dec 16, 2021 8:10 pm

Today is 5 years since I got my implant. I have no regrets except one. I should have done it sooner. It's been a challenging 5 years with health issues but the implant has been great. I have helped several guys in the 5 years and I am willing to help more.

I live in Philadelphia and willing to share my story or do show and tell.

Congrats Philly and thanks for your help.
We as men know how important it is to have that thing working right down there. If it don't work right , we are miserable and that's no way to go through life.
55 yrs old. Prostiva procedure (enlarged prostate surgery) June 2019. Also hard flaccid issues. Working thru it (massage/yoga/exercise) and getting better and more mentally positive. Still experiencing ED, hate pills but i'm gonna figure out a way.

Thanks for the update. Members have asked for success stories in the past. Your post should help to calm the fears that some men have.

Congrats! 5 years implanted will help others make that decision.
Agree that I should have done it sooner too. Pills and injections just prolonged the depressing truth that ED wasn't going to cure itself. With the failure of pills, then injections, it was like suffering through the beginning of ED again and again.

Congratulations...
I'm a couple of months ahead of you... Sept.2016... I too wish that I'd been implanted earlier... pills and injections just didn't cut it.
My confidence has returned and I'm happy with the results...
Happy to talk and help any Aussie guys on FT.
