You are doing great ! Welcome to the club

Thanks your doing well yourself , definitely need to find new underwear for this, always been a short man and just boxers, some TLC for the kids....

[TANGERINE]

congrats ! Welcome to the other side. Since you are a nurse, you know the "healthcare biz" and as the saying goes: "if you really want to get the scoop on who the good doctors are in the hospital, ask the nurses -- they always know"

PS, it sounds like you are alone, tell us how the medical escort worked out and tell us how you are getting meals shipped-in to the Bentley (when I was there, breakfast room service was awesome, but that was it)

[GiRn56]

Thanks for the reply, The medical escort is just that an escort, no medical training that I see, 80$ and taxi fare to get you to your room, she offered to go get any food etc, I declined and tipped her and away she went. Very pleasant lady / escort, kinda sounds promiscuous;) She did elaborate Dr Eid had patients fly in from all over the world from Dubai to Iraq.... As far as meals I just called and had them delivered, I mean ya bed rest, but its no biggie to walk to the lobby, your not going to hurt anything, it's more for swelling which your icing anyway. I went to a target when I went to the WTC mueseum Tuesday and stocked up so I did have to order but a couple of meals. It's noisy no matter what rooms you get as it's right next to several expressways, overall it was ok, had to get housekeeping to wipe down the switches and bathroom as I told them I was having surgery.....

Yes nurses know the great, bad and ugly of docs, they like nurses take care of their own for good and bad...... I have a list of personal physicians if I'm critically ill they are the ones taking care of me

Apparently you did all your homework since you're doing great. Very good to hear the details of your "post surgery" which will help ease the journey for others. Dr Eid is a world class surgeon with all the support links for stay in NYC.

Hope you have a speedy recovery

Thanks Hardrod, and everyone else for all your continued support I wish Iwould of thought of a implant several years ago as my symptoms started to become worse both mentally and physically in regards to my ED. As well my long term relationship starting to fray from a partner that was nearly silent, as I attempted to try different things / meds to correct my problems. Not until I broke up with my ex gf who I still dearly love I decided to research and seek the big gun as you say in getting fixed. Compounding the issues was as a nurse we treat ourselves as we have unlimited access to physicians and get what we need. Nurses don't take care of themselves due to job and relationship pressures that bestow us... we are givers not takers... What I'm trying to say is if you are having issues from ED, speak up and get help, nobody is going to do for me but me... Life is to short to be unhappy;) and the weight that has been lifted just stepping into the operating room has been tremendous . If one as well has no restraints or work, financial, insurances , Drs Eid / Kramer are your go to guys,, the best of the best. I stepped out of my comfort zone as a nurse with Dr Eid, and will never look back.... Regards to all

PS Dr Eid was even in the OR room helping the staff get me prepped, that's dedication and recognizing the value of his staff

[Xomanow]

And now your staff will have more value....

Received my OR report today, Surgery was 1.5 hours, Dr Eid found after the cylinders were inflated the first time I had a slight deformity from pyronies, not a diabetic, only hypertension and slight increase in cholesterol. Had to do some manual modeling. Then still had to do corrective incisions and suturing at the base of the penis and near one of the corporotomies
after that.. he shortened my implant down to a 19 as well , not quite shure what my overall length will be postop....I shudder what the outcome would of been had I gone to my local inexperienced uro who only uses AMS. When in doubt Eid and Kramer for the penis...

Shortened to 19 as in giving you an 18 cm implant plus 1 cm RTE, or shortened to 19 as in taking a 20 cm implant and modifying it, i.e. cutting it 1 cm?

Shortened to 19 as in giving you an 18 cm implant plus 1 cm RTE, or shortened to 19 as in taking a 20 cm implant and modifying it, i.e. cutting it 1 cm?

Report states it was a 20 and I observed the charge sticker it was also 20 down to 19. I did not talk to him post procedure so I am uninformed as to what exactly occurs to do that. He has a video where he has I believe demonstrating a shortening but not "cutting". I also need to touch base with him as far as cycling and the incision / suture work he did if there is anything I need to compensate for in the healing process...
