Mick, I wish you all the best, I'm sure you'll do great. The waiting is the hardest part, but once the deed is done, you'll be on your way to recovery, and in just a few weeks you'll be ready to put all the ED nightmares to bed. Looking back, you'll realize it was the best thing you've done. Best of luck & speedy recovery!!
63, Central Florida area, ED for two years. Implanted with Coloplast Titan Touch (22 cm w/ no RTE's) March 23, 2015 in Daytona Beach by Dr. Martin Dineen.
Re: Countdown is on...
I was in the same spot a week ago, I know how you feel.
The pre-surgery anxiety and mixed emotions are completely normal.
It will be all worth it, you're making the right decision!

Re: Countdown is on...
It just seems miraculous to me....Here I am only one week post surgery, and I'm able to cycle it and have very normal feeling wank in front of porn, no injections, no chemicals, no fuss, just a cock that stays hard forever if I want.... I don't want to hazard sex it with a partner for another two weeks at least, for obvious reasons, and the incision scar hasn't dissolved out yet so I'm not looking my best.... You'll have some pain, but truly only for a few days if your experience anything like mine...
Go for it !!!!

Re: Countdown is on...
Thanks guys. I truly appreciate the well wishes. As i write this im lying in my hotel bed getting really cozy with ice packs. I remember doc telling me everything went great but not much else. They had me on IV pain meds at the time so i dont even recall what size implant i ended up with. I see the doc first thing tomorrow morning and once i get all the details i will post them and a report of how i am doing. Right now all i want to do is sleep. The pain is minimal at 8 hours post op. I have a catheter and a suprapubic incision drain, both due out tomorrow.
Again, you guys have all been so helpful letting the rest of us know what to expect. For those of you contemplating an implant or already scheduled you will do well to seek out a high volume surgeon then just go for it. You have everything to gain by doing so and what you will lose is the beast that is ED.
Stay tuned for updates as i progress.

Congrats, glad it all went well.
Lucky you, you're having the catheter removed the day after surgery. I was stuck with it for 3 days and it sucked. My surgery was only a week ago so I can relate very well for what you said. I also had the Titan
Looking forward to your detailed post-op info.
