hey, I read your story on here and can understand why you don\'t like elist. not a big deal to me one way or the other. I simply thought prezz should have kept the implant in longer - just an opinion.
as far as your experience, I read where you had the implant inserted over Dermal Grafts..........maybe that became the source of your infection? maybe not, but elist does state nowadays that he doesn\'t put the implant in folks who have had prior grafts/surgeries.
just a thought
You are right, I did have
Dermal Grafts and they could have definitely been the reason for my infection....But the good doctor told me that there would be no problems with the
Dermal Grafts...And it doesn\'t explain the couple of dozen implant rejections (on this site alone)....
Just curios...Why would you know that Dr. Elist no longer puts the implant over the grafts?
And as to why Prezz had his implant removed...
What would you do if you had a medical procedure done by a board certified surgeon on a very important part of your body? You made a rash decision (without due diligence) because you understandably believed that doctors tell the truth and hold the patients health as a paramount consideration.
Then you go on the Internet and find that not only has this doctor been padding the truth, but he has been outright lying and is responsible for disfiguring countless men.
And after your research you have made a determination from the results of your research that the average implant needs to be removed within 2 years (with scar tissue amassing with time and complicating things the longer you have it in you).
And...to your further dismay you find that the implant doesn\'t feel right at all but rather a plastic dildo that does not \'soften\' over time. Any women or man would know it\'s an implant immediately upon the touch.
Would you want to keep that ticking time bomb in you?
I have been on these boards for 7 years and have seen so many cases (and have been been personally contacted almost every week by another unhappy implant recipient).
i have no motives other than to help my fellow man .
And I do think it odd that your (only) 4 posts deal with defending the Elist implant. If you do not trust
PMMA/
Dermal Grafts and the implant, I am curious why you spend your free time on a site that deals with these topics.
And I have tried positing warnings on doctor medical review boards but they eventually get removed....
I am not making this up....I am not a liar and have no ulterior motives....
And with regards to your snarky lottery comment. Did you do your due diligence on
PMMA with as much zest as the implant? I am not a champion of
PMMA and do not recommend it to anyway (long term effects are unknown)...but I can tell you the real short-term complication rate is very small (compared to other options). And there are no long term complications to date.
I have seen it change men\'s lives...I certainly don\'t have any complaints 4 years after getting it.
