Re: Implant day 22/03/18
Great news. Glad you are doing well. In recovery I thought the pain was the rear tip extenders. But it was the cath. I had a GSW in the lower left at my belt line. The reservoir is near there and I get discomfort when I breath deep. I had a young smoking hot woman remove my cath. Made it worth it I think.
Relax and take it easy and heal up fast.

It would be a little easier for us if you did not go back to your first post. It easier just to post after the last reply. The threads can get quite long four or more pages. Glad you are doing well. The pain when peeing will clear up

I got up to go to the toilet and get a drink at 5am. While standing in the kitchen I became a little light headed. I sat down and just felt the heat come over me. Next thing i was lying accross two chairs and my mum waa there holding me up. Apparently I started snoring very deeply and then shaking?! This has never happened before.
Anyone else experienced fainting or almost like fits after surgery?

Any movements shortly after lying dowm should be slow to g8ve your body a chacpnce to adjust itself. Right after surgery everything is moving a little slower. Call your dr maybe nothing but let him know

You had what's called a "syncopal episode" It is caused when your blood pressure is low. This is one reason you are suppose to stay in bed and rest.
You are going to hate this part but, the answer to most of the questions you are going to have over the next 3 weeks is "give it time". Over the next 3 weeks, many things will happen as your penis and testicies adjust to your body. Swelling and bruising will go away, burning from catheter will go away and by 3 weeks you should be able to start to cycle, as long as your doctor has given the green light.
Don't forget to update your signature.
