That's cool. Did you guys happen to see each other? But I think Dr. Kramer has you go home after a short recovery time, no hospital stay.

Motorcycling? Well I'd expect you to be able to get astride a cruiser after a few weeks, but might be longer if you're aboard a crotch rocket. Like - how far do you lean forward and put the squeeze on them babies? And look, you're probably going to have to sit out next year's Paris-Dakar.
There's a wide variety of experience in the nut behaviour department, it seems. For what it's worth, my scrotum was very tight but not swollen for 2-3 weeks post-op. And had sharp pain (not a kicked in the cods type ache) in or about either nut where the pump rested against them. At 7 weeks it's relaxed a good deal and is basically fine, though I still get occasional shooting pains for no apparent reason, just to remind me. Ye scrotum is kinda clever the way it goes in and out and makes room for the new tenant.

Nut they gave me their opinion by tighting up and saying two is a couple and three is a crowd.

Questions

Any golfers with an implant if so how does the pump effect you

I read riding a bike could be an issue, but what about a motorcycle

My scrotum gets really tight at times with just my two nuts, do your
scrotum adjust to the extra friend or does it tighten the same which
would seem to squeeze your testicles.


MC,

I sat on the same fence, and landed EXACTLY where you have -- scheduled with Dr. Kramer for August 2nd! Worsening ED for a few years had me on the fence. The knockout blow from my RP in March pushed me over the edge. And while I'm scared shitless about this, I'm trying to stay focused on:

1. How wonderful it will be for my self esteem, emotional and mental health, and my wife's and my relationship.

2. How wonderful it will be to be able to approach sex without fear of failure from a limp dick, or from an erection that won't last. Really looking forward to having those pressures gone, so that we can just enjoy the moments.

3. How wonderful it will be to have a dick that I don't have to search for. My dick was always on the very short end of the bell shaped curve, but the prostatectomy took away what little I had when flaccid. A frightened turtle head is uncomfortable both physically and psychologically.

4. Having read the praises of him here on FT, and having spoken to him, I am extremely confident that Dr. Kramer will deliver the best results possible.

What time is your surgery scheduled? We'll probably get to meet each other, maybe before and after our bionic transformations. My best to you!

I am scheduled to be there at 11am surgery between 1 and 2

Oh no, no Paris-Dakar, damn! :lol: I'm only 4 weeks post op, but I honestly think I could ride a cruiser. And if I hadn't sold my VTX1300 last year, you bet I would be riding. I also like to ride dual sport bikes, and they sit up high for the ground clearance, so that might be another story. Sitting on a bike with 35" seat height might scrunch the boys with the extra inhabitant. :lol: But I suspect in 6 months I would be able to even ride a dual sport bike. I'm still in good enough shape to ride off road, so I want to get more off road riding in before I can't anymore. I do like to ride a hybrid bicycle too, but I don't think I should try that just yet.

It didn't take me long to get off the fence, 6 months without being able to fuck was enough for me to get off the fence. I can't comment about golfing, as I don't golf anyways. My scrotum does tighten up at times, but most of the time it saggy. To be honest, my sack is still adjusting to the new occupant. I really see no reason why I couldn't ride a bicycle or golf for that matter. Good luck, Aug 2nd will be here before you know it. And quite honestly, I was scared too. But it really wasn't that bad.

Below is a video of Malcolm Smith riding off road, and at the time, he was 68. For those who don't know who he is, he's an American motorcycle racer. He first started racing in the 50's. He is a six-time winner of the Baja 1000. He was in the classic motorcycle documentary, On Any Sunday, alongside screen legend Steve McQueen.

LOL. Believe me, mine had a mind of it's own too. And it kept telling me that it's too crowded in here. Well today, I did not think about the pump once, no kidding. And I heard that would happen, but it's taken 32 days. It was comfortable today, and I had some tight jeans on. But if I touch the right side of my sack, I can definitely feel that it's there. LOL

MasterCard, I was one of them that was asking my self "what the hell have I done" Like you have a RP in February of 2016. The day after my implant surgery I had some inconsistency problems again not as bad as the RP, but i had to wear a pad. I had not heard of anyone having that problem here until I asked and some us RP guys have a little problem with it. So just be prepared and hopeful you have no problem.

I am 2 weeks out and it really wasn't bad. I would just make sure I have my butt laying down and icing for at less a week. I didn't even know they removed the catheter the next day. Just get ready to rest and ice you will be fine.


Tybeeman

I also had some consistency problems for a short time after surgery which cleared up after a month or so. Did wear pads for a short time but that is a thing of the past hopefully it will stay there. Rest: CHECK Ice: CHECK

No we have not met although it may happen before it is all over. WIth Dr Kramer you can either go home the same day or have a 23 hour stay. I chose to stay overnight.

MC,
So first about the fence. I was never really on it. I counted the days until i could be considered for implant. Grab the bull by the horns. Be in control of your quality of life. I am 6 1/2 weeks post op. Start cycling my implant & clear for sex tomorrow after my dr appointment. Best thing i could have done for myself. Like Tybeeman said, rest & ice first week. Still take it easy up til one month then you have little restriction. As far as the motorcycle, i ride an ATV. A little different due to shitty terrain. Was definately a little sore first few times out. Still hafta go slow but getting better. Think with the rest you'll be able to resume normal activities before long. Pain was tolerable. Now i'm ready. Think tomorrow nite i take my wife on a well deserved date with all the extras ! Cant wait. And that's what its all about.
