Here are my thoughts feelings and experiences about my penile implant activation. I was very embarrassed to lay on the exam table while my surgeon demonstrated how to pump and deflate the implant.
1. The pump starts off very difficult to squeeze and takes a lot of pressure. I was only able to get 4-5 pumps before it got too hard to pump more
2- I'm glad I was prepared before surgery about the loss in size. I lost about an inch.
3. It was a very good thing my wife learned how to inflate and deflate the pump. When we tried the implant for the first time, I was completely unable to find the deflate button. My wife learned that the implant was facing sideways so the deflate button was not where I expected it would be. If my wife didn't learn how to deflate the implant I would have needed to drive back to San Francisco the next day to have my surgeon deflate the implant.
4. After a few days of use my wife and were enjoying our sexual experiences together as much as we did before my prostate was removed.
5.To those men who feel the don't want to go within a mile of another surgeon don't let your past experiences cheat you of having a procedure that restores your sex life.
6. I find the implant to be light years better than penile injections
7. Getting the implant was the best decision I've made after I didn't regain erectle functioning after double never sparing prostate surgery. I feel completely restored.
7. My wife and I look forward to enjoying many years of making love. It's true that you don't know what you've got until it's gone. We feel very grateful to re-experience what we thought was lost forever.
If anyone has questions about my experiences with the implant or want to know more, let me know.
