Hi Ronn
I was back to driving within 5 days.. I have a manual gear change (stick-shift I think you call it). Although driving was no problem just be careful getting in and out, most of my discomfort came from my scrotum touching the edge of the seat as I got in and out!!

Ronn,
Like Dave I was back driving within a week ... an inflatable donut cushion helps considerably ... keep your new hardware suspended above the seat.

Next day.
I am sixty-six years of age and dealing with gradually worsening ED for twenty years. At sixty-three I wanted something that worked reliably. I got an AMS 700 LGX implant in 6/25/13. I am entirely pleased with the outcome. My surgeon was Dr. Karpman.
Re: Driving a Vehicle?
Driving was not a problem for me, but as already mentioned, be careful getting in and out.
I'm 75 and got an AMS Ultrex in 1995. Had it replaced in 1999. Got a new AMS 700 LGX in 2013.
Re: Driving a Vehicle?
My doctor told me to not drive if I was taking pain pills! Other than that, no restrictions.
Re: Driving a Vehicle?
I drove myself home the next day.
Re: Driving a Vehicle?
I drove second day - as long as no pain meds - no problem driving EXCEPT learning how to get in and out whiloe adjusting to that "third testicle"

Re: Driving a Vehicle?
Hi Get a jock strap, this will give you extra support underneath, ok not had an implant but did have a vas, and with that you need support, same region and something like the same pain, I would think, my only real big pain was taking a dump, felt kike my nuts were hanging in the water.
But wore a jock strap for a week, worked well.
Hope this helps.
Good Luck
