Wow, you actually did a test drive? You mean, after all the pain and suffering, these things have a use for something enjoyable? I’d almost forgotten, lol. I’m happy for you and I am especially happy that you don’t have an infection.
I am at day 15, I am feeling much better…and I feel like crap!

… that’s how tough it has been. I’m glad I was able to stop the warm baths from yesterday, still spotting blood from the incision. My theory is that my testes were swollen so large that it may have opened up the incision on the bottom. This is something my doctor should’ve thought of and also looked for and he didn’t. I did bring up earlier about the wisdom of continuing emerging in water and was told it was OK. Finally yesterday I sent photos of blood stained underwear and I was told to abstain from the baths.
Anyway, back to you, it seems like you are making good progress. Happy for you, and it also gives me hope…strangely, I haven’t had sexual thoughst since I’ve had the surgery because I’ve been in so much pain and now discomfort. My stomach is destroyed from antibiotics twice a day, thank God today is the last day, and the painkillers. Today I have only taken Tylenol so far. I read about guys who can’t wait to masturbate and have sex, but I have yet to associate all this discomfort with something pleasurable. I know that will change as long as I steer clear of an infection.
