The AMS regional manager tested it, and certified that it was indeed defective, even when the doctor said that it was perfectly fine (it self-deflated and by 1-2 minuets after inflation, my penis was fully flaccid).

So, you are in your full right to have a second opinion; if you can get it from the manufacturer even better!

I believe its messed up also, but dr says it is fine. We will see. Kinda a downer after dealing with ED for 10 years. No sex in that amount of time either............that didn't cost anything. Spend a chunk of change and still don't have a hard dick. NOW thats a harder pill to swallow. I don't get where time would make it any easier whatsoever to pump up. The only way to make it softer is to pump it, but if it won't pump, the mf'er won't pump.

Press the deflate button firmly. Then squeeze the bulb really hard. You'll feel/hear a "pop" and then you're in business.

I have to do that every time or you can pump it forever and it won't do a thing.

Every surgery ain't like roses...........some have thorns also. I say what I want to say. You have the right to not read what i POST. When you start controlling what someone posts on here that means its time for me to leave.

Again. I agree with pressing the deflate vigorously. It could just be stuck. That has to pop open to allow the saline to flow thru to the cylinders. Like others have said to you. You are early on and operation was very difficult for all of us at the begining. Keep a level head and dont jump to conclusions. Like i said, could be very stiff and stuck. Be patient.

Reading the whole thread and all I see are men trying to help you. That's what this forum is for. Help, support and then ideas and assistance. The outpouring of adive is to help. Your anger does not help those on here trying to help you. Each one has also been or is going through their own battle. Like me 20+ years worth of a battle. Take a breath and try and see how so many are trying to help you. As I said earlier - hope it sorts itself. I'm sure it will. It is early days.
