I don't know if this would factor into cycling of implant from 3 week activation benchmark onward; however, keep in mind that a capsule is forming not only on the cylinders but also on the reservoir.
At some other authority site someone asked why the cylinders were not left pumped up closer to 100% after surgery and wouldn't that also avoid the pain normally encountered when cycling is started. The response revolved around the capsule formation on the cylinders AND also on the reservoir.
If the cylinders were 100% pumped up and the reservoir was left empty early on then the capsule that forms on the reservoir would impact the deflation of the cylinders. It seems the chubby state is a compromise.
"Later that evening though I started to have a new pain and discomfort like my penis was about to explode."
Do you think when you do start cycling that you are going to have significant pain from the placement of your reservoir? I hope not, maybe that area is not nearly as sensitive as the penis.
Reading your post has reinforced my goal to lose substantially more weight before I get my implant.
BTW, I picked up my ICI prescription today. I need to get my zoom call scheduled/done and I will start doing injections as part of my rehab process (and hopefully other activities too).
The pharmacy instructed me to keep the non-punctured vials frozen and the vial that is punctured should stay in the refrigerator. I did not think BiMix needed this. That was one of my reasons to start with BiMix versus TriMix.
yeah didnt think about the reservoir psuedo-capsule, but cycling could hinder the reservoir psuedo-capsule then there would be issues for the IP guys who are cycling within 3-7 days of surgery. Plus I am not talking about long cycling sessions or perito exercises yet. I was just thinking of pumping it up to highest I can tolerate a couple times a day and immediately deflate it back to 60-70%. Just for the last 3 weeks mind you until I get fully cleared to hammer this thing! I think the main issue with starting too soon cycling of PS guys like me is the risk of infection due to your hands rubbing the incision area. Mine is actually about 80% healed with not scabs, glue, etc. so my incision should be totally healed at 3 week mark anyway. Just something to think about as I sort of already broke the seal in messing with it!
The penis exploding part has gone away so I assume it was just part of healing. There might be a hint of that feeling left as my current chubby feel similar to my erection on trimix after ejaculation. That trimix was nasty and worse though causing pain for almost an hour afterwards with 60% erection.
Dealing with the fridge and freezer is not too bad. I would find a good needle and the fill all my needles with trimix until vial was gone and just freeze the needles in a tupperwear container. Just be sure to put some air in the syringe to allow the liquid to expand as it freezes. I would then just grab a couple needles when time to get with my wife and the needles were thawed after some foreplay that was needed anyway so I could get a little bit of an erection in order to hit the spot better with the needles. I do not recommend it but it was taking a needle in both side of my penis in order to get me hard enough for penetration and even then it got soft quick.
As far as weight loss goes - I think you are wise for getting to where you want first. You would hate for the reservoir to be in a bad place only to find this out later after you lost more weight. At the same time dont wait too long as you are losing length at the same time. JMO
