Gregorbehr why did they make a horizontal incision? Did they use drainage tubes to remove excess blood?

That was over 7 years ago... who knows. Hell, that implant was removed a year ago anyway.

What’s your situation now? Do you not have an implant?

A very odd situation... after having it for 5 years an odd "infection" formed and it was removed. Granted I also ended up having a form of lymphoma cancer that usually women with breast implants get, that has something to do with the plastic in the implants. So my doctors speculate that perhaps my implant caused the cancer. but with so few known cases of that type of lymphoma in men with penile implants, there will never be an answer.

I’m so sorry. Do you still have this cancer?

Been in remission about a year. It was pretty bad there for a bit... death bed sort of stuff. And in the middle of covid, I was lucky the hospital let in one visitor a day, cause I was out of it most of the time and had no clue what was going on.
You can see in the pics, the lymphoma caused massive swelling in my leg and groin/genitals

Gregor, I'm confused about the scar tissue not allowing the cylinders to go into your glans. I've seen quite a few men with severe scarring and peyronies have successful implant surgeries. I'm guessing that the surgeon's skill would be extremely important in these cases?

Dunno. Was ages ago and has been removed.

You’ve been through a lot of medical ordeals. How do you feel now?

This is the first time I hear about implant-related lymphomas, seems like it’s called BIA-ALCL when it’s from breast implants. Only starting to get recognized in the last decade.

As someone who’s already had lymphoma, this is ringing alarm bells.

I didn’t know there was a link. Hopefully it’s a very rare thing.

I’m glad you’re over it now, OP.
