TOPIC: Dr. C Ratings Outside this site:

I totally agree w/ your comment about the 9x6 guy...I do not get that at all.

I am wondering if there\'s anything we can do to minimize the chance of these negative effects. Low dose allopurinol? Medrol dosepacks periodically? Trental (inhibits inflammation and TGF-b)? Is there a better understanding of the process that the body goes through to \"reject\" or adversely react to PMMA?

It may sound crazy to some to take pills every day (or perhaps just in the first few months) - but I am personally both desperate and paranoid enough to do it. In my case, I\'d take a penis transplant & take immune suppressants forever. I went from a normal 5+\" Girth to 4\" Girth (on a good day w/ viagra) from Peyronie\'s - so if I had to take a pill for the rest of my life to maintain a safe immune response to PMMA I would. Obviously, corticosteroids should not be taken daily except in true organ transplant cases - but other immune modulators are not that risky (trental, allopurinol, accolate, etc). Accolate may cause liver damage but a $20 LFT blood test regularly can assess that.

The only other \"downside\" to this is that I don\'t know if it would inhibit collagen synthesis. And, trental causes some sleep and digestive issues for some people.

Although I don\'t take those 2 reviews at makemeheal.com seriously (I prefer higher standards of reporting than mere internet hearsay), I do take seriously the potential for risk & complication in both the short & long term as it pertains to penile PMMA.

It\'s been repeated numerous times here, long-term effects & complications that develop years down the road are not well understood. Furthermore, with any medical procedure, there is a percentage of patients who will inevitably endure a complication of some sort (minor or major). What we do know is that major complications (any complication that affects the function & sensation of the penis long-term or permanently, or any complication that leads to severe deformity long-term or permanently) are virtually non-existent in the short term through reports found on this forum (minor complications are a different story). That may explain PMMA\'s popularity. But we must not allow instant gratification to cloud our judgement, and while I think the makemeheal.com reviews are questionable, they at the very least highlight the reality of this procedure and the seriousness of making the decision to have it done.

And members wonder why Moderators have a tendency to discourage this (or any) procedure, even in light of the fact that some of us have had it done. It isn\'t hypocrisy, we just care that you make your decision an educated one. If any of these potential complication scenarios aren\'t apparent to you before you commit to this procedure, you aren\'t informed enough.

fyi: Makemeheal (as well as HIV Facial Wasting forums) have both been discussed before as it relates to this thread\'s topic.

\"Any complication that leads to severe deformity long-term or permanently) are virtually non-existent in the short term through reports found on this forum (minor complications are a different story. \"

This is why I posted in the link; call me paranoid, but I often think PhalloBoards does not show the full story. One of the only public reviews I find when doing more research outside of this site yields the website I posted containing all bad reviews. How do I know the people on this site are real? PhalloBoards is convincing, but I guess I can\'t buy it until I really see it. It would be like buying a car without checking it(the engine, the underside etc.). I know pictures are posted, but you must understand Dr. C could easily hire people to post pictures of his best results etc.

You\'ll say, but there are those that have had bad outcomes on the site. It is has been very few as mentioned by Skeptical. When I look at the ratio of good-to-bad on each site, I guess you could say I expected them to match. It is red flag in my mind that they don\'t. I am being cautious as this is my one and only penis. I want to be convinced more than anyone out there that PMMA is generally safe. I do believe the idea of a personal meet-up or skype-meeting would be helpful to see the tangible/personal reality of it as opposed to the digital reality, but I understand privacy is always an issue. This is not a decision I take lightly. I am still hopeful of PMMA and the possibilities that might exist in the future.

But PhalloBoards isn\'t selling anything!!!!!!

It seems to me most of our members use a very selective sub conscious editing process when reading these forums. Hence certain members have such polar opposite opinions of how the moderators want members to view things. On one hand we have people like you who think they are being sold a procedure and on the other hand we have members like Pontest who think we want to discourage our members and make them think size doesn\'t matter. To reach either conclusion you have to do some serious mental editing in terms of what you choose to take in and what you choose to ignore.


Oh and if the bad penis result is the guy I think it is, which it almost certainly is, I can tell you I virtually begged him to post about it on the forum. Instead he deleted all his posts!

I think those reviews in that link are fake.

I would have thought a frequent visitor would know otherwise, but for those who are new to the site I should make it very clear: I voluntarily created this forum (prior to the knowledge of PMMA/Dr. C on this site) and invited a group of MyNewSize (a now defunct penis enlargement website) veterans to voluntarily Moderate this forum. I then added a few more to the Moderating staff to assist with the increased usage of this site. Myself & the Moderating team are NOT affiliated in any way shape or form with any physician or commercial interest. This site has no ads, no revenue, no profit. This is just a clarification for those who haven\'t followed this scene long-term. This site was made specifically to combat the ill-effects of having commercial interests vested into a site that involves PE information.

As for whether Dr. C & company has a member account here - I have no clue, but wouldn\'t be surprised if they have a lurker account.
