I was worried that my nightly dose of 2.5mg tadalafil was starting to cause hearing issues---but it felt like more a congestion in my left eustachian tube, because it didn't seem to affect my external hearing; it's more like it was amplifying the internal sounds of chewing & swallowing. 

I mentioned my ototoxicity concern to my urologist, and he pointed out that those drugs (Viagra, Cialis) can lead to congestion in the sinuses, so it was probably just congestion in the eustachian tube, and not some sort of hearing damage.  I'd already stopped the tadalafil for a bit and it had cleared up.

So I bet that, many times, ear/hearing effects are just from congestion, not ototoxicity.  Of course, otoxicity is also a possibility, and thus a valid concern---but probably not the first conclusion to jump to.

Quote from: Stepone on Yesterday at 06:53:28 AMthan the implant or a combination of both? Has any of the doctors said this?
I have read your report, but I didn't see what the surgeon plans to do?
What are they saying needs to be done?
So what did they say about your warm penis?


Thanks StepOne, I appreciate the support.

To answer your questions, the 2 surgeons I saw in my state wanted me to go back to the surgeon who did the procedure. One of them said they can operate an do a revision but I will have to get a cystocopy done first. He looked at my CT scans and did say it looks like my bladder is pushing against th reservoir. He also said the tips of my cylinders didn't feel right but the CT scan showed no abnormalities.

User Tortao also had TEP, his journal is in this forum and he recovered and was working n comfortable by month 4.

Regarding the warm penis, one urologist just said it could be a sign of possible infection but it's not that bad that it needs anti-biotics yet.

I am grateful I have a regular family doctor and all the symptoms I am suffering could be an indication that I have prostatitis.

I have had a light fever some days (37.8celcius/100 farenheit. It comes and goes.

I am a bit stuck as I dont know what will happen. I dread going to the bathroom because sometimes I get leakage after peeing etc and then end up in really bad pain.

Hoping for an end to all of this soon, I am almost regretting getting the implant, as before the implant I was active, in the gym, working, reading. Now I am mostly immobile, dread going to the bathroom, constant discomfort and extreme pain after leakage or ejaculation.

My last reply somehow disappeared, so if this is a duplicate I am sorry.
I see m sorry you are going through this, I can't imagine what you are going through, stay strong.
You are the first on this forum, that I can recall who had the TEP procedure and the first person I can recall who had had the issues you have had. So I am wondering if these issues are more related to the TEP, than the implant or a combination of both? Has any of the doctors said this?

Stay in touch.

Some complications recently at just over 4 months from surgery

Saw my GP, I had done CT scans. The GP advised that everything is very cramped in my pelvis area, the reservoir is hitting the bladder (another urologist also advised this).

I've been having the following symptoms:

- Pain after leakage (leakage seems to be pre-ejaculate or secretions), the pain is in the shaft, scrotum and perinium area, it also occurs after proper ejaculation/orgasm;
- Warm penis (this was strange but I have noticed it), my penis is usually cold but has been warm, a urologist also noticed this.
- My temperature is sometimes 37.8c which is 100 farenheit, I recently noticed this, I also have a blocked nose (it's cold here and I think I might just be getting sick but keeping an eye on this).
- I have done the blood test 2 weeks ago to check for infection, it was negative.

I suspected that I might have prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate), I have started some medication for it, then may be doing an ultrasound soon of the bladder.

Really not sure what's been going on.

JNRJ,

Before claiming medical credentials and soliciting for any form of treatment (free or otherwise), it is proper forum protocol in every country to introduce yourself to the forum administration to establish your identity and get clearance for such posts.

The internet is full of free meditation sites.  Links to very good resources are provided on our Psychological Aspects board.

Please PM me if you want to follow through with this.

Hawk,

Insurance denied Dr Yafi for Peyronie's as a "next level" doctor. Their protocol evidently is to try a second urologist before moving forward. Just being cheap I'm sure. I'll now be seeing Dr Sun Kim in Orange CA next week.

Actually, this is the first time an insurance company has assigned me a doctor, and overrode my physician's referral as well. Things are getting bad.

Why are you so certain your scar tissue was caused by a "masturbation injury" and not the Trimix?

Trimix caused my Peyronies Disease. I am not a fan.
