Malleable journal - nervous but hopeful

Loose pants totally fine for the time being.

Hello Duke my friend how is it going?

Day 24. Hard to believe it's been so long! I am healing up nicely. The final bit of my dressings came off to reveal what's left of my stitches and a small bit of scabbing and only the very last bit of bruising. Overall, I think things are going well. I haven't taken any kind of pain medication (not even ibuprofen) in about a week, other than for a headache I had the other day from drinking too much coffee on an empty stomach.

One thing I noticed is a very small hard bump on the side of my shaft, near a vein on my penis. I don't know if it was always there and I simply never noticed it before, or if it's actually new, but I'm going to be asking my surgeon on Thursday what he thinks about it when I go in for my first month check-in.

I finally broke down and masturbated a day ago, gently touching myself with -- and you're never going to believe this -- a feather I bought from a craft store. Basically, I edged myself into oblivion. Not proud of it, but didn't want to risk roughing up my penis, either. In retrospect this is hilarious.

Thank you, my friend! When I touch the shaft it feels hard like a natural erection, like the kind I had when I was very young and extremely horny all the time. I'm really pleased with it and think that it will only become more "natural" as my capsule forms around the implant and my penis looks 100% recovered.

HOW about ur Glan is it sensitive when touch with ur cloths ?

It's more sensitive near the incision sites (I had subcoronal implantation) but otherwise it feels normal!

Day 28. Had my doctor's visit today -- really a meeting with the Physician's Assistant, a very knowledgeable and personable guy. He asked me a bunch of questions about my experience so far and then examined me, also bent the malleable into a few different positions.

I was expecting there to be pain, but I basically didn't feel it at all. I was shocked. He said I'm healing really well and that I should be good to have sexual activity in about 10 days. I'm going to wait a full 2 weeks, but then I think I'll be mentally ready for this big change in my life. I'm in a weird position where I can't wait, but I'm also not totally prepared, yet!

I follow up in July with the surgeon's office. So happy that things seem to be going so well!

That's an excellent update, Duke. Impressive that it can bend on day 28! Coloplast seems to have done well with their engineering on this. One benefit of having a malleable in winter is that I can stick mine out and still make trips to the grocery store, all while a jacket keeps everything concealed!
