TOPIC: AstroD's debriefing

Hey AstroD,

I just had round 3! Wade told me to hold off on using the x4 extender for 6 weeks post op.

Regards,
CPW

Ok, thanks, but I haven\'t even taken it out yet.

I\'m using the ESL-40 exclusively, but it\'s not really making a big difference. Unfortunately, I have a couple of hard nodules now and when I lube and feel (massage) my Dick, it feels all kinds of lumpy. Also. my base is now not as wide as the shaft and upon Erection, it\'s quite noticeable.

I may have to go again sooner than later for another round to fix this.

I started some minor vacuum today, not more than 5Hg. I\'m probably at what most describe as the low point, so I will wait a couple more weeks to see how it goes.

@AstroD:

Things will work out. I know that they will.

If the next round is to be a touch up round then I would suggest waiting a bit longer to let things settle out. Wait six months or more. During those six months continue to work your penis. Massage it Extend it. Jelq it. Then do an assessment. Seems like a long time but in the scheme of things it\'s not.

Good luck. Keep us informed. We are all hoping for the best for you.

Hey AstroD: How are you getting along?

I never get notified of any replies to my thread, so I hardly check anymore.
It\'s been 9 weeks since round 3. My shaft is starting to smooth out, but I know that I will need another round to fill in a huge gap at the right base.
My first two rounds were with Metacrill. My 3rd round was with Linnea Safe. I don\'t like it. I had an abscess that popped and I lost a large amount of product from the left tip area below the glans, and I kept oozing even after a couple of weeks. It feels very hard on the side right of my shaft (albeit it\'s 30%), but I can\'t seem to smooth it down any further.
I turtle pretty badly, so I have the typical pig in a blanket look. If I stretch it out, it looks fantastic. With an Erection, I can feel and see lumps, bumps, nodules, and misshapes. I accept all these things because my girlfriend says that she loves the \"filled\" feeling she gets. But I don\'t like the way it looks or feels when hard.
I\'m going to call them and see when they think they will have Metacrill. I\'m not so sure if I want LS again, but if they don\'t get MC, I\'ll have to bite that bullet, as I won\'t be able to get this for a very long time if I don\'t get it this year.
I\'d like to fill in the right base area where it\'s lacking, and perhaps replace the lost filler in the left shaft especially towards the tip, where you can see a depression.
The two entry points are lifted, look like whiteheads, and are rock hard.
May end up doing the DMSO treatment after all is said and done.
I want to clearly state that I am extremely content with my new size. The way people look at my bulge when I wear tight jeans makes it all worthwhile, although I kind if feel a little shy and self conscious.
Mainly, though, my self confidence when walking around in swim trunks is vastly improved. I feel better about myself, and that is the important thing, not how it affects others.
I\'d do it again.

Freaking huge

@AstroD: \"I\'d do it again.\"

Me too brother, me too!

Well, now that things have stabilized somewhat, Im planning to go for either rd 4 for only the base to fill in a large gap, or a touch up if that\'s what they\'re going to call it.
Anyone know if Metacrill is in stock now, or is it still LinnesSafe?
I\'ll be calling Diana tomorrow either way but I figured I\'d ask around here first.

I know you posted this a long time ago... but if your kegels are involving your anal sphincter, you\'re not really doing it right. It\'s common to use that muscle to guide the pelvic floor when you\'re starting, but you need to separate control and eventually not use any rectal muscles (they will move though).

@AstroD: Did you get your 4th round done? How did it go?

Yes I did and I explained everything to Doc and even gave him pictures of my Erect penis to highlight the areas that were lacking in product.
It looked very good the few days after, of course it was due to swelling. I was finally at 7\" Erect Girth!
Alas, the swelling has subsided and although it looks much better and very good compared to the pic you see a few posts behind, I can tell that there still isn\'t enough product to level it up to that side bulge. I had written in the questionnaire that I wanted all the cc\'s owed me that I paid for...that is, up tp 20 cc\'s without extra charge.
I only received 14cc\'s. I asked Doc if he read the paper and he said no, so I feel that I didn\'t get my money\'s worth in product. I would have liked to get all 20cc\'s even if he distributed it along the sides or base...hell it resorbs somewhat anyway. I was too embarrassed to ask him for the difference.
I asked for PRP this time for the better healing aspects of it. I had it in rd 2 as well and it seemed to help.
So, I will not post a pic until the swelling completely subsides so as to give a more accurate indication of how it ultimately heals. And, I haven\'t measured it since that second 7\" day, nor will I until then either, because I don\'t want to discourage myself when it goes down to the 6\'s.
Caveat...
I think Doc C is great, and I suppose I deferred to his professional opinion about the amount of product that would best enhance the outcome, so perhaps that\'s why I didn\'t push the request for maximum product, although I still feel that if I paid for it, I should have received it. Nonetheless, I have no regrets and I would do it again, and again, and again, and again.

I remember reading guys getting mid 20 cc and I was getting high teens cc only. I think it\'s a length thing. Dr C isn\'t about number of cc but rather the expected outcome. The cost isn\'t the number of cc but the whole thing - his time, and his staff\'s time. I trust him. Thank goodness he doesn\'t listen to us!!! haha

I\'m with you my man..... I too would do it again and again and again....

Oh good CPW, it sounded like you were implying that he used less because I\'m short dicked...lol! JK!

Well guys, it\'s been almost two months since round 4, and I still have an oozing opening in one of the entry points. It just doesn\'t heal. I had a couple of those still when I had round 3, and Dr. C cauterized both, which healed well. So I\'m thinking that I will make an appointment for cauterization and for perhaps the smooth silicone, and ask about the corona too. I\'ve seen pics of it, and it seems that sometimes the dip or valley between the urethra and corona gets filled in and lost. I like my dip...I just want the outer perimeter of the corona done. Also, I\'d like to get the scrotum done too, but not sure how they do it. Is it silicone into the nut sack or injected just subcutaneous? I could use a bigger ball sack.

It typically gets injected into your sac. I know one guy with silicone in his Balls which I have felt and it looks good - but you can sort of feel it. But I know what Balls feel like. A woman would probably never know. I also know one guy with HA in his sac who was a member here. He is really happy with it but said that when it gets cold he can feel it is small clumps. He is still really happy with it though. I think because silicone and Silikon being that same thing I assume, gets a foreign body response it tends to get denser so that it was I was feeling and it was all the the base which makes sense given gravity.
