I had my implant sept 21st 2011 and the first 3 months after if I could have changed it believe me I would.Some people don't have much trouble,but I was in pain for most of the 3 months after surgery.I thought that I had really messed up this time around the 4th month things began to start felling better,I have used it for 3 times and it seems to be working OK.I lost about 2 inches and it is not as round as it used to be before the implant I was around 6 3/4 long but now only 4 3/4 Hopefully as time go's by maybe I will regain some of my length back and it will get more round.
Thought I would share this info with some of the guys thinking about getting a implant ,it takes time for things to settle down and get back where u stop thinking about ur penis.I still sit on the pump at times and that is not a very good feeling,but all in all I am now felling much better about doing this.
I will post another in a couple of months letting u know how things r going

Thanks infinite19 for sharing the info...
Honestly I do not really understand doctor's logic behind putting cylinders that small. What's the reason? Just to make sure it will not erode? Shortening is really should not be an issue but every time it is.
I cannot believe docs just don't have a ruler handy to measure the dick before inserting an implant. There must be some really good reason to insert rods few inches shorter than it should be.

What size Titan did he install? Were there any RTE's on it?
Also from your previous posts, it sounded like you had major healing problems or possibly an infection. Is there any chance you sustained corporal damage or scar tissue during the healing process that is affecting the size when you pump it?

Up date on sitting on the pump I was at home last week and sit on the damn pump again pinched my ball and hurt like hell,my wife went to the bedroom and brought out a pair of her panties and said put these on.I thought why not try any thing that would help.Well I had to drive about 200 miles the next day I wore the panties and I never sit on my balls r the pump one time.sure was nice not doing that,thought I would pass that information along to any one that is having the same trouble.I went on line and ordered me some that look like they will help,but till then looks like she will just have to share with me (smile)

I had a infection but it was in my balls that is where he cut me to implant the only real pain I had in my penis was around the base when I tried bending it back to wear brief underwear.Just could not do that back then I had to wear boxer shorts

I had my Titan implant 2 days before your surgery. First 2 1/2 months were uncomfortable but now feel great. Lost about an inch in length and have a nasty curve when deflated but straightens out when inflated. I was wondering if I made a mistake the first couple of months but feel good about the decision now. Nice to not have to screw around with injections, vacuum pumps and the rest of the crap we had to do.
Age 60, married, PSA 12.4 PCa 3/07, RRP 5/07, no extension, nerves spared, subsequent PSAs<.01, continent 10/10, ED continued with no effect from pills or injections, implanted 9/19/11 Coloplast Titan OTR.
