No change at all flman48, The Dr's office has made me an appointment to see the Urologist on Aug 26th. I will find out if it all has to come out. :(

Still hoping they can find an option short of removing it.

Have you been able to pump fully yet? I to am on the smaller side at 5.5" when erect in the past and always concerned as what to expect. Did you keep your length and girth after when inflated? Whatever you can tell me would help. Thanks for the photos and after my surgery with Dr. Kramer, I will also post to help others. :P
Implanted March 2nd by Dr. Kramer with AMS/LGX. Had a problem lower left (scar tissue) and he placed a larger (thicker) implant as you can here on the YouTube video. Got all back, ED over 10 years before Implant.

Ok another update: What a crazy roller coaster of a week ! I started getting a intense burning in the area around the pump and abdomen, saw the Dr on Thursday. Based on the amount of discharge and the level of pain I was experiencing I was scheduled for surgery the very next morning to remove everything. Got all the blood work and hospital setup and went home to rest for surgery. I woke the next day and the discharged had stopped and all pain was gone except for a slight soreness over the abdomen. I couldn't believe it, what a difference a day makes ! I called the Dr and they postponed everything until Monday. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Crazy indeed! Just maybe the drugs and your own immune system kicked in and fought off the infection. Best of luck! Fingers AND toes crossed here.

I agree flman48 ! Have a follow up on the 8th of Sep. I really hope the information I have shared of my experience will help someone faced with the same issues.
