Thanks Step.  I was also kind of shocked how well I healed.  Definitely was different story with the grafting and excision.  I was expecting swelling, massive bruising and maybe a hematoma or two.  Nothing.  I feel I'm ready to go now, but I will not do anything till I see Dr Yafi on 9/14.  I have taken care of myself a few times, very gently during inflation.  No issues

Ok, so here I am 3 weeks post surgery.  No swelling, no bruising, no pain other than a slight soreness every morning which I attribute to still getting something related to nocturnal erections.  When you no longer shrink I assume there will be soreness until everything truly heals.  I just have to say I am so much more confident in my body now.  Let me first of all say o would NEVER cheat on my wife, but prior to implant there were times where I would think "man if that hot girl wanted me RIGHT NOW, I don't think I could satisfy her".  Now I walk around like "I could do your bachelorette party and satisfy every single woman there!"😂.  I have been going commando in joggers, and let's just say I know how a well endowed woman feels when she steps on a beach in a bikini.  You feel the confidence.  Not like I'm walking around with a hard on, but if someone ran up behind me and pantsed me, I wouldn't cover up in embarrassment like maybe in the past.  I'd prob be like "yup that's me".

Your sentiments exactly reflect my experience and thoughts.  I think it is pretty typical of a guy that dealt with Ed for a period.  An implant does not only serve you during sex.  It changes your entire persona, even while watching tv and an ED reference is made.

Do you mean a week from tomorrow right?  I feel great for you because you make me remember when I was a this pont in my journey.  I was cleared for sex 3 weeks after surgey and was still tender to any side movement etc and it was still GREAT.  You will be in even better shape.

My guess is that it probably was good that the Excision and Grafting was done before hand. Still an amazing recovery!

Underwent Plication with Dr. Brian Christine in Birmingham, AL on 6/17/2021. Fully recovered with no complications.

One month post op, and cycling daily is no issue.  Only soreness I feel is when I wake up in the morning.  Maybe I still get something resembling a nocturnal erection?  Who knows.  Also, when inflated if I push to the left slightly I get a pain behind my sack in between my legs.  Same thing is felt when I tighten my kegel muscles.  Only feel it when inflated.  Not excruciating, just annoying.  Just drives home that while I look completely healed I still have a ways to go

Dr Yafi sent me an email stating all my concerns are normal.  I was upsized to maintain length, and the cylinders are dilating the tissue.  Takes awhile for body to heal and adjust.  Turned 47 today!  Wish I could use my new tool.  See Dr Yafi on Monday so hopefully just a few more days

All clear from Dr Yafi.  No swelling or bruising.  Soreness gets less and less every day which is really good.  Asked if I needed him to call the neighbors and warn them😂.  Said enjoy my new toy and check in with him from time to time.  He enjoys hearing positive news

   Tdix, I'm very happy for you. I'm a little jealous of your recovery. I know when I'm cleared I'll be just like you. After all if we didn't get excited about having sex we would not have gone to this extreme.
  Good luck to you and yours enjoy every second....

I actually waited a day past my ok date. I was a little scared and so was the spouse. So waiting one more day made it so good!
We both were happy.

So on my way home from a haircut and get a text "buy condoms".  Hell, I haven't bought condoms in almost 20 years!  (Vasectomy after daughter was born). Condoms are due to the issue above.  Anyways, I felt like I was 20 years old again.  Turns out I can get semi erect still when aroused, but not fully.  Pumped that bad boy up and I was transported back in time.  No ring, no injections, no pills, no WAITING.  Just a few pumps and good to go.  Let's just say we wore each other out like old kids😂.  A little sore afterwards but I would've been in the past too.  Pretty awesome test drive

Still here fellas.  2 months post implant and let's just say I am a horn dog!  Haha.  To be able to do whatever I want when I want with this thing, for however long I want is quite satisfying.  My wife loves it, and I found out she told a close friend of hers about it(without asking me🙄) and she commented "I am so jealous".  I tell her I'm Steve Austin "better, stronger, faster".  Haha....if you're young you prob won't get that

I for sure didn't get it but i am very happy for you, given that i followed your journey for so long here in the boards. You never gave up and followed through with your will to be fixed and to have the care you deserved and the results speak for themselves.

Nothing else to add, except that you have done your time here in this place and you are now free to go and check in once a year. You have my blessing son.  ;D 8) (joking!)

Question for other implantees, did your libido go through the roof?  I literally think about sex all the time now like I did in my twenties.  Wife not so much🤪.  Wish there was a female version of this so we can go back to being like bunnies.

Yes, mine did go up too. It's because we are happy again and no stress hormones to beat us down.
Same, the spouse's appetite for sex does not equal mine, but it never has.
But I am still so happy.

This is so awesome to keep up on, I only can say how much I can't wait to be healed, not sore and comfortable with the workings of mine. Six days ago at this hour I was in surgery for a four hour procedure of cut and paste to straighten and implant my crooked junk. Even looking back now, sure is better to be six days out than six days before.  Really happy for you to hear how well it has worked out for you.

And I truly hope it will work out for you as well man.  Life is too short to be unhappy and sexless

Congratulations on your brilliant recovery, TDix. Another successful surgery and positive outcome. I loved your question about "does anyone think about sex all the time post implant?" My answer to that is more than at any time in my life - it's non stop. My poor wife has to put up with my constant horny behaviour.

That's definitely cool, it definitely seems that they did a great job on yours given the quick recovery time and the details that you posted.  It definitely gave me comfort that if I need to get one that it definitely doesn't have to be a horror story.

Congratulations TDIX, that is exciting. I would like to see it too. Are you going to have a film release party.
I have a question, so I see you received the Titan Zero. Is this a new improved Titan? If so how is it better? And/or how is it different in terms of use, etc.?

Congrats on your journey!

I have a question. Do your penis expand to the same size prior to Peyronie? I've seen somewhere that the erected size post-implant is the size of the flaccid penis stretched. I'm confused.

My interest in implants is growing even though my erection is quite good. My case is surgery wise, and probably I'm gonna need an implant :-\
Hope everything goes well.

Tortao, I can't say I really paid attention to my length prior to peyronie's.  I was happy with what I had, and never felt the need.  Of course after developing peyronie's I was like "I lost length!"  Which I'm sure I probably did, but my surgeries have restored most if not all of what I feel I had prior
