My implant journey

[logical84]

I do not intend to wonder, "What if I made a different choice"? So, I am spending considerable time and energy in research, which I seek to share here for the benefit of any who wish to partake.

If I were not so determined to be informed and participatory in my medical choices, I would have had an implant in September, 2016. Done and done. Instead, I delayed surgery and researched and found authoritative sources which influence my thinking.

As a new member, and someone who is considering this option for the first time in my life, I'd be extremely interested to hear a summary of your research, as well as to hear the other members' thoughts.

Thanks in advance,
John

You folks post wherever you want! Don't let someone chastise you! I've never been dead; does that mean I'm not allowed to write about death?

On the other hand, I don't think it's reasonable for folks to ask other members to repeat or summarize what they've already posted, often at great length and effort. The forum search function works pretty well and it's possible to find what you're looking for yourself.

I don't mind sharing what I have found but right now it is terribly disorganized. Perhaps the best way see what I have found is to click on my user ID and read through my previous posts. I have links to most of the research I have cited

Getting an implant is an important personal decision. That being said, if pills and injections no longer work, it's either implant or pump with a constriction ring. If and when you are ready, I highly recommend going with a top surgeon.

Your summary of things ED2013 is always a joy to read. I'm off today to see my Urologists about my implant and I hope that I can tap into your experiences more as I start my journey.

My emotions are all of being hopeful, scared and confused right now and wishing I was the other side of things.

One thing I commit to this site is I will keep everyone informed because I feel that is my duty after all the help and support I've had from everyone else.

Good luck all.

Here's where I'm at:

I started pumping until it hurts, then stopping, then resuming in a few minutes. This way, I can get to my current max with the least pain possible.

I am seriously worried about losing length. I have attached pictures...

My original dick. 5.25" bone pressed... https://www.dropbox.com/s/esj0snxk9lh76 ... 3.jpg?dl=0

My dick after silicone injections...

Three pics of my dick now. 5" bone pressed, except that due to the placement of the pump, I won't be able to get in 5". More like 4". I requested pump behind balls and that's not what I got.

Tell me honest opinions. Do I have a tiny little shrimp dick now?

I've got say I've looked at the pre implant pic again of you laying down. It looks pretty good from my perspective. I also agree you will see more improvements over the coming months.

Stay strong and believe you will get a good outcome.

I'm going to sleep with it fully inflated from now on.

Be careful if you roll over.

It hurt too bad. Couldn't do it.
