You get one life man....live it to the fullest.
6 months after you're all healed....your only regret will be not doing it sooner!
The confidence and power that comes with perfect on demand erections is beyond measure.

It's normal to be anxious and stressed. If you have a competent surgeon and did the pre op research to decide on an implant you will be fine.
Don't expect miracles from day one, but over the coming weeks and months expect to eventually achieve the results you hope for.
Post op look after yourself, stay focused and follow follow your surgeon's instructions religiously.
In my experience an implant is life changing and restores both your sexual function and confidence. You can do this brother.

I've been there. As a matter of fact I cancelled my initially scheduled surgery in 2015. Then 2 years later went ahead and never regretted it.
Yes it is normal to have an anxiety, very few of us are superheros when it comes to the subject of own dick.
I was extremely anxious before my replacement too, 9 years after the initial surgery. I am 5 days after the replacement surgery and I am still as anxious as one can be.

However, you should imagine the sense of freedom you'll gain once you are fully functioning. It is a day and night differences. No more anxiety about getting or keeping hard - anytime, anywhere, for as long as your partner wants.
In my case, it had a huge positive impact on my overall self esteem. Women just feel the degree of confidence as vibes without any personal relationships context. That's a different peronal dynamic - strong, independent, elegant.

I am nearly three times your age and able to obtain great erections for sex by simply pumping up with a VED that holds a tension ring, and applying the ring to my penis when it's pumped up.

I think that implants are fantastic for those who have no other choice. I am not in that category, and I'm very grateful for that.

This surgery is irreversible, and it won't be the last you'll need, so be sure that you really do not have other choices. The medical indudstry is working to provide better drugs and other non-surgical methods for addressing ED. Best of luck.
I'm in my early 70's. Serious problems with ED started in my early 60's. ED drugs were eventually not effective enough. Aquired VED pump and constriction rings in 2024 which provides usable erections for sexual activity.

You have been struggling with ED a long time.

You wrote a similar post in September of 2022.
