I hate to be the guy spending your money. The ER's are over their heads with this. Us implanted men don't fit into the medical system perfectly.
My suggestion is a local urologist that has some understanding about implants or back to Hakky.
We've never met. Only a fellow forum member. You have to decide whats best for you. But I do not see where he provided you any help & did a CWA on the chance of infection. Shoddy work in my opinion.
I truely do wish you the best luck & outcome. Just make sure that you're at peace with your decision.

What do you mean by CWA?

Spelling mistake, CYA. Now fixed. Its a common American acronym for "cover your as". Like as in "watch your back". I'm sure we use a few other variations.

Thx for the words of wisdom GT I haven’t been very impressed with Urology at this hospital so far the attending uro told me he doesn’t know much about implants he is mostly a cancer guy. Anyways just confirms what we all know penile implants are a highly specialized division of urology.
Anyways, the good news is they are doing what Hakky advised which is take antibiotics and see him Tuesday if it’s not resolved.

Your area might have the same problem that I ran into with a pulmonologist for my sleep apnea.
Three of them were ineffective in treating me. All 3 had been trained at the same school & specialty program. The program didn't train for my variation. I had to limp along until a new guy moved here. Not all schools have good programs for each specialty they teach. Half the success of getting treatment is wading thru the swamp of poor drs. We see this in implant surgeons. Oh, they need to care also. You can't train that personality trait either.

I’m being discharged from the hospital my swelling had gone down my balls still remain red though. Hakky advised I take caverdol (beta blocker) for the redness and said he can see me Tuesday if I don’t feel better.

Also have some oral antibiotics from the hospital doc for at home.

Ultimately I still don’t know if it was a device infection or just swollen from biking and fucking this week.

Hope it is not an infection! Please keep us posted.
