Job done

Postby JohnThomas » Tue Mar 27, 2018 11:24 am

Well I received my new implant yesterday.

So far less painful than I expected with really very little pain at all, just a feeling of tenderness.

Maybe that will change over the coming days.

It brought a smile to my face to see this tent pole holding up the blanket when I awoke this morning.

For now I am just taking it easy and letting it heal, I suppose the real test comes with inflating/ deflating.

I will post updates

Thanks for the good wishes.

DAY 3 UPDATE

I am surprised how little pain or bruising or swelling there is in the penis and scrotum. I was expecting far more, but it is negligible. All of the pain seems to be in the groin area where the drainage was inserted.

Today I managed to briefly feel the pump and the position seems right.

The Titan is quite full when in the flaccid state and takes a while to get used to the bulge. Just glad that I have a very loose pair of trousers.

The shaft of the penis is pointing a bit to the left in its uninflated state, so trying to keep it more in the central upright position today

Takes a while to get used to peeing with it. Harder to aim and fire, and some dribbling. Hopefully this will improve with use.

Definite sensation of something new and a bit heavier between your legs.

I suppose it is like any other prosthesis - first your body has to get used to it, and secondly you have to learn to use it

All the best to those who have or are thinking of having an implant.

You are not fully deflated. Thry keep you partial inflated for a little while

thanks, yes you are correct - I should have said semi inflated

Day 5 and recovery continues nicely, still on painkillers and anti-biotic, but beginning to get used to the new thing between my legs
Follow up check up by surgeon now scheduled for next week which is good.

Hi!

I'm booked in with Mr Ralph to have implant procedure on Wednesday next week. You are a little ahead of me and I was wondering how the recovery is going?

Hope you are feeling ok!
