Title: Ultrasound Results
Post by: thinkpositive on March 25, 2018, 10:13:21 AM
The doctor who did the ultrasound said he could not find any calcified plaque anywhere in my penis.  That the tissue looked uniform and normal.  He said I could have soft plaque that the ultrasound could not see. 

Asked me to get myself erect so he could try to concentrate his efforts into the bending area, but man.. there is just no way I could get it up in that room, I got semi erect and he tried and again did not see anything

I see the Uro again tomorrow... something is sure making my penis bend right.  Is it possible its something else?

Any comments?

I'd ask them to induce the erection and check again.

Thinkpostive...I find this very odd that a doctor requested that you get yourself erect. My doctor gave me an injection. He also did this prior to giving me the ultrasound. Its a simple little shot just under the skin. Then another shot to reduce/take away the erection when he was finished the the examination and ultra sound. I would have thought he would have done this prior to the ultra sound. I would think they could get a better overall view with the ultrasound when the penis is erect. Just my two cents.

The Doc should definitely induce a full erection with an injection..........It's just common sense and surprises me how many Euro's out there claim to be Peyronies specialists but
are not...........
The more erect u are the better the test......Don't worry about prolonged erection as my Doc told me to take a Sudafed if there was a problem......it brings it down but I didn't need it.....
Good Luck ........

My doctor has a hot looking nurse. If I were asked he would have to bring her in :D

To check for plaques, no need for erection
An injection to induce erection is used to check for venous leak
