Genesis Implant Experience

[ThePlumber1964]

Are you feeling the burning sensation when pumping to the maximum? If not, you most probably have run out of saline.

nope never have

Day 2

My dick is sore and shitting is an ordeal.
It's a juggling act trying to manage the piss jug while sitting on the toilet while not tearing out the blood drain.
Those first few minutes after waking up are heaven, but the pain quickly sets in.
I'm not sure if taking the oxy is worth it. The slight dulling of feeling does not make up for the constipation and sharts.
I'm not in any real pain, it's just a achy-sore feeling. My shaft and pc muscle area are the sore spots.
I find it really hard not to squeeze the pc muscle while peeing, causing it to start and stop several times.

It's getting better though. Everything looks good and clean. Swelling is slightly better today.
I am taking very good care of myself.

I can feel the pump close to the bottom of my testes and behind. I'm not sure if that is an ideal position or not yet, too early to tell.

I look forward to having the drain removed tomorrow and taking my first shower!!
It's funny how these little milestones feel so satisfying.

Genisis: Try stopping the oxy. I swithced to a comination of advil for swelling and tylenol for pain. I hated the oxy too. The pee and poop conundrum will be with you until you are cycling. Drain coming out will be a big help too

Thanks Cin. I'll cut the oxy and start an anti-inflammatory.
Tomorrow will be amazing.

Update: Took 1 Aleve and feel better than ever. I had forgotten Tylenol is not an anti-inflammatory.

I'm a quad so I'm very susceptible to constipation, I didn't take any OxyContin just ibuprophen, if you take Tylenol do not drink wine or any alcohol.
I try to empty my bladder before taking a dump so if I can't push all my junk down I don't squirt all over the bathroom, otherwise I put a waste basket in the line of fire

Glad you're getting better, in a few days you'll be feeling even less pain.

I was lightly feeling around down there when suddenly I noticed some clear liquid in my drain tube.
My temperature got warmer right away. Im just warm right now, not burning up.
Taking my anti biotics as instructed.
How worried should I be?

Edit. Talked to the on call doctor and he assured me everything sounds normal, the liquid getting clearer is actually a good sign, and the elevated temp is just part of the healing process.
Signs to look for include a temp of 101 or greater for an extended amount of time, blood in urine, visibly seeing the prosthesis, and discharge from the incision site, all of which Im clear of.

Clear discharge is usually okay just as doc said. Keep an eye as you surely have been.

So interesting how our surgeries can vary so much.
I was in hospital overnight (11am surgery) catheter til about noon next day.
Blood drain thingy was out first, catheter second.

I think we all hope for somehow to keep all our size when we get implanted.
That's almost never the case even with the most aggressive surgeons.
I've lost probably .75 of an inch if not a little more but when aroused it swells at the tip.

Keep healing you're doing great!

I'll bookmark your thread and if there's any questions let me or any of us know

I have regained my original (pre-prostatectomy and pre-implant) length when hard, and have 1.5" more when soft. So I am happy!
