Installed, signed sealed & delivered

Postby Epsilon » Tue Nov 24, 2015 7:33 pm

Check in 6:45 this morning (11/24) dismissed at 11:45am with an LGX. And a four hour drive (by my wife later) I'm camping (on the couch)

Thanks to everybody on FT who got me through this answering my endless questions and concerns. To you guys, I owe a debt of gratitude ----- I think. Can't urinate without serious sting but figure grin and bare it for a day or two. At Mayo, they do the Dr. Eid no touch and no bumps in the road. Thanks farmer & Bill.

More to follow but promised my wife we'd go dancing tonight so out we go. Macho macho man!

Later.

Random observations following my implant surgery three days ago (11/24).

1) Bladder spasms and burning on urination have been my most unpleasant occurrence. I've had these before for other surgery but if you're going in you might ask how they will help with this pain if you have it. They come on fast with the sensation of having to go immediately. And when you do go, it burns like hell. Been having these for three days now. Went to the local pharmacy and picked up an over the counter pill to ward them off but hard to really tell if it has helped. It's from the cath they used during surgery.

2) Pain is almost a non event except for the bladder spasms. Best way I can describe it is this: If you were going to do two sets of 20 situps and 20 pushups today.....then repeated those exercises tomorrow, you'd have some sore muscles in doing this. That's the pain I've encountered. Not bad, just not comfortable and those sore muscles only hurt when you move.

3) If you look at the head of your penis following surgery, you'll probably see two red (blood) pin holes. And that's exactly what they are from implanting, then pulling the string through to draw the cylinders up into place. You can observe this on you tube if you really want. I think it looks lots worse than it is. Anyway, that's the third area of discomfort. They sting for a day and a half.

4) Lastly, I think my abdominal pain (cramps) might be from pumping gas into my abdomen to better see what they're doing in there. There are some docs on here that can comment on this. I had some mild discomfort from that which I suspect was from inflating my abdomen for the reservoir placement. LIke having hernia surgery.....when you cough, you're sore enough to notice.

My surgery was done at Mayo Clinic - Rochester as an outpatient procedure. If any other questions, just ask.
