My implant journey - a long running saga

[Stobhill]

Pumping up has been fine, and I was told yesterday to be patient.

6 months is a reasonable time to notice length improvement.

Having had peyronies has had more impact than I originally thought, so what goes well for you might not go well for me.

What I have now (literally as it's my second cycle of the day) is a nice looking USABLE penis.

More than I've had in a long time. Mustn't get greedy.

All going well here.

However, whilst my cylinders are the same length, they are not aligned correctly anymore.

That means that the left cylinder appears longer than the right one.

When inflated it also means that the left one is doing most of the extension work.

I've asked my surgeon if this can be corrected but I've not heard anything back.

I now have an infection in my left testicle.

My sperm is an unhealthy brown/red color, so two weeks of antibiotics.

I'm curious to know if this is more common? After all, there's a foreign object down there.

Did the doc say if the infection is from implant surgery? It's a bit strange to have it several months after surgery. I hope you recovery quickly!

Ummm...replace strange with 'not often' because I had my surgery in mid-August, no symptoms, 2nd surgery in December...I had an infection. No outward signs of infection, but I did have one.
Sorry to hear about infection. Advocate for yourself because some Dr. will try to dismiss you, even though YOU are the one going through it. Take pics as often as possible. Record things often. How it felt to do certain things, even sex! Just be professional about the whole thing (no common man lingo, like cock or balls or fucking, lol).

An infection of the epididymis, testicle or urinary tract should be separate from the implant. Unless maybe it was injured during installation??? Still,that was almost a year ago....

[Agfa13]

Lol, what do you mean, separate from the implant?
You are saying that the invasive procedure should not have any infections???

[Stobhill]

Hi folks, thanks for replying.

I had my last surgery about 7 months ago so this is not connected to that.

Perhaps I scraped the testicle when inflating, or something collided when wearing trousers.

It could just be an infection i would have had even if not implanted.

I have an ultrasound on the 24th, so might find out something then.

Wishing you the best, seriously. You have been dry for a while now, so hoping the dry spell ends very soon!
