First of all: Thank you to all of those that have shared their bionic experiences, advice and wisdom !
My ED situation escalated exactly 3 years ago tomorrow with an RP for cancer. Have had varying dwindling successes for the past 3 years. So tomorrow at 11Am, exactly 3 years to the hour since the Rp surgery; I will be going bionic with Dr. Levine and a Titan in No. Illinois. Having had numerous surgeries in the past i am comfortable with whatever the next few weeks will bring my way. I will provide updates while i am on the mend.

Home now from the surgery center - with junk wrapped like a mummy. Wifey is picking up my script for Norco (also have 500 mg Tylenol and Advil in the house). Only pain is modest pain from the catheter that was removed before I was released. Also was sent home with a drain that the doc will remove tomorrow.

Looking forward to hearing how your doing, I wondered about the cath if he sends you home with it.
Maybe its different for everyone?

Re: Joining the Bionic Brotherhood tomorrow
Thankfully the catheter was already removed when I woke up. They just wanted to make sure I could pee normally (even though it stings) before
i was released (which I did).
Just had some soup - drinking lots of water now to recover from the stringing pee symptom - which is working.
Just took my first Norco and am getting comfortable.
Tomorrow need to visit Levin's office to have the drain removed. I also need to remember tomorrow to ask which size Titan was installed.
So Im lying flat im my recliner with ice on my underside (cooling my scrotum). A few other motes:
before surgery asked about the pump and was told it will be the classic pump. Also was told that Thursday will be next milestone (I should remove bandages and Have my first shower). Oh and another tidbit He was successfull in getting the resevoir placed in an optimum preferred position despite having a previous hernia that was fixed with surgical mesh.
Well the Norco must be working so I
will quit rambling and will provide another update tomorrow.
