I was scheduled to have a post op appointment to learn how to cycle about a month after surgery. I started playing around with things in the shower on Day 18 and pumped up my implant. I then had to figure out how to deflate it (the keychain model helped). I emailed my surgeon, Dr. Kramer, and he told me that if I felt OK I could keep on cycling, which I did.
