It’s my two week anniversary of being implanted, so I thought I would give you guys coming down the line a view into how it has gone so far:
Days 1-2: No pain, dick wrapped tight and no swelling. Hey, this ain’t so bad!
Day 3: Wrap comes off. A little bruising, a little swelling, but overall dick looks good!
Day 4-7: Holy shit. My entire pubic area below my belly, dick, scrotum and taint go completely black with bruising and swelling. It’s a horror show! Scrotum blows up to grapefruit size, hard and heavy and full of fluid. My dick looks like a pink sausage (the glans) poking out of a black pretzel bun (my swollen shaft). Doc says he has seen worse but not much worse, and puts me on antibiotics out of an abundance of caution. There is some pain, but it’s minimal and mostly related to hauling around a soggy grapefruit between my legs. Compression shorts are my best friend, they keep my junk from sloshing around down there.
Day 8: Bruising and swelling start to go down bit by bit. This continues through second week. Almost no pain, but a little discomfort standing up or sitting down.
Day 15: Almost all bruising gone, and swelling is down to a manageable level, doesn’t feel like an ostrich egg in my pants anymore. I can now feel the bulb of the pump in my scrotum, but don’t dare press it yet. Feels just like a third testicle.
Moral of the story: even when shit looks bad - and I looked pretty bad for a few days - it gets better pretty quick. Just take it easy. And get some compression shorts a size smaller than you normally would!
Be well,
Leto
First two weeks of recovery
First two weeks of recovery
49. Implanted 5/21/2024 at Kaiser SSF. AMS 700 CX 21cm, 3cm RTE. Penoscrotal. Venous leak my whole life. Pills helped, but hated the side effects; worked less as I aged. Skipped injections. Grateful to bionic brotherhood that helped me make this decision.

Yeah, I went the infra-pubic route so I didn't have any of that bruising or swelling on "my boys"
In fact, that 1 in. scar I had is almost non-existent at this point.
Wife can't even see it anymore.
I tell her to examine the area VERY carefully........... she may have missed something.
Anyhow, you are about to experience super powers in a few weeks.
THIS is when life gets good.
Congratulations.
You'll see!
