Doug,
I am honored that you are going to see my Urologist, Dr. Kata. I couldn't be happier with my results. He is an awesome Urologist. He will fix it right. My surgery was sheer perfection. I have had absolutely no complications or concerns.

This sounds like an implant cylinder crossover which happened to me

I hope Doug does not honor any of us by picking our surgeon. I have no clue how that would honor me or dishonor me anyway. This is not about us. It is about Doug. We should all hope that this time he picks the very best surgeon he can get because, if his report is accurate, it establishes that all surgeons are not the same and he should have picked a far better surgeon to start with.

My encouragement is not that he pick my surgeon because it so happens that my implant works great by my criteria. How my one specific implant happens to work is hardly the basis for anyone else to make a decision on.

My encouragement is that he picks a surgeon widely known to resolve problem cases successfully by a wide swath of patients.

My surgeon did an awesome job on my implant. He is compassionate and really cares. I am glad that he is using him. He is very approachable and has an incredible bed side manner. He is local and does 8-10 implants a month. I have heard no bad reports on him. He did a great job. Why shouldn't I be honored. I know he will do it right the first time.

Wow! How can you "know" that about any surgeon. I could not say I know that about my surgeon. I only know that his odds are much better but I guess if I had recommended he not go to his surgeon and go to mine when he first started to post I would have been chastised because all surgeons are the same.

Why do you insist on bullying my posts. I liked my Urologist. He chose to see him. He is local to him and he is quite competent. You can recommend whomever you chose. It's none of my business. I have never read a bad report on mine and I couldn't be happier. Only others can read your remarks because you have been blocked.

Donnie, I don't even really know you. I assume you are a nice guy and I would enjoy chatting with you or having a beer together (if I drank) I am not bullying you. I don't know what tone you read into my posts, maybe it is the limitation of the written word or maybe my inept writing skills. I differ with you on many points. I personally am leery of the Doctor that did your surgery for such a non-conventional way of stacking your RTE's. I accept it came out good for you so far. If there were 50 or 60 people here of all ages and conditions and 58 of them reported objective measures of good results I would have to reconsider. You, more than anyone I know that went to Dr. Eid, promote your Surgeon. Not with specific facts or statistics but with euphemisms like "my wonderful amazing surgeon". I have no idea where all this started but it must have been long before my implant. It is almost like you cant feel good about yourself or your penis unless people embrace your doctor and his methods. It all seems so very personal with you. I am truly sorry about that.

Doug seems to have a real problem. If so, it is because he already made one bad choice in selecting a surgeon. I think you might agree with me about that yet you and I are not picking on him and we are not picking on anyone else that used that surgeon and is happy with the outcome. We are making a judgment on the data available to us. If you were Doug and had a botched implant surgery you would probably go to your surgeon based on the fact that you are happy with what he did to you. If I were Doug and had a botched implant (I cannot even fathom the disappointment), I would not go to a surgeon that 1. does not have a widely known following with a high approval ranking. 2. That has an unconventional view of stacking over 5 cm of RTE's. Maybe he is on the cutting edge and knows something the rest just don't, but until that is proven I would choose differently.

There is no picking on you and no bullying you. This is not about you. It is not personal. A rejection by me of your surgeon is not a rejection of you and it is not insinuating my dick is better than your dick. By the same token, a decision to go to your doctor is no honor of you Again, please stop looking at all of this as though it says something about you, your intelligence, or your manhood. It does not. It is about varied opinions on the best process for picking a surgeon that will provide better odds. Peace !

Does sound like a possibility, then again, looking at the video of my revision, I don't think anything was wrong with my AMS; it was just as the other doctors I consulted said, it was the wrong size, too small of a diameter and should have been a Titan. I discussed the AMS with Dr. Milam and agreed on the expansion might get some size back but little did I know that the maximum size of the AMS was smaller than my dick size. You cannot put a toothpick in a wet paper soda straw and expect it will maintain the proper form and shape of a full length straw and that also sounds like what you are experiencing. I've brought it up before about lazy doctors, doctors poor at math, crappy inventory, and they stick whatever is on hand in you and expect the expansion to make up the difference. That silicone is very TOUGH. Try pulling on a sample cylinder. It is going to take many many many cycles to limber it up and stretch it to it's ultimate capacity. In the mean time, if it is undersized, it is not going to keep your dick correct to form. In a case like this, a doctor well experienced in corrective revision needs to do this, not the local guy in the back room of the quick shop behind the gas station. Some may feel my opinion is hard nosed. I know a guy who had 5 implants before he had one he could use. The first 3 were the same doc who kept doing it over again. My experience working with engineers and contractors (even myself), is that when a person makes a mistake, for some reason they are prone to make the same mistake over and over again. Same goes for spelling and math. Everyone is prone to repeat mistakes. I think after the first time, it becomes an automatic process, so it is often good to have someone else look at it from a different perspective. Donnie, do not freak out please but consider this. The more tip extenders, the more the implant begins to emulate a solid implant which defeats the purpose of an inflatable. I have to say though, it is wonderful you are happy with what you have. Too many have shit outcomes and deal with tremendous stress because of it. Shit outcomes have a lot of risk for many. If you are 75 years old another surgery may be beyond what your body can take. You also may never have time to use it or use the revision. If you have 1 implant and the infection risk of 1 is 3%, wouldn't your infection rate for you as a person jump to 6% when you add a second repair? Many ways to consider these things. Think outside the box. The view is better. Reasoned thought. Cheers boys. Be a teenager.
