TOPIC: soma's bella to pmma

Good to hear champ!

Hi Fellow Phallo Fella\'s,
I haven\'t been as diligent with updates as I had hoped. Likely because I\'ve been preoccupied with other areas of my life, and to a large (pun intended) degree my issues have resolved and my Phallus is fine. I haven\'t measured lately but I think my gains have been stable. That said, I\'ll be returning for another round for some aesthetic work. I would take another .25 in Girth (so would the wife), however it\'s starting to affect the look. Funny how dramatic the effect is, more Girth making it look shorter-
I\'ve started Hanging again now that the abscessed area is completely healed and the \"pocket\" has re-attached. Once the skin has stretched back out and I have all the length back (1/4 Inch more at this point), I\'ll schedule the next round.
Once again I need to give thanks to Dr R for treating me and calling in scripts for the infection I had after PMMA, something he originally advised me against. He was very supportive and his advice empowered me to tell the Urologists at Mayo NOT to open and irrigate, which they wanted to do. Nothing against them as they have no knowledge of implanted Bella and the deleterious consequences of getting water and bacteria in/on it.
My advice to former Bella patients who undergo PMMA is to continue antibiotics for 2 weeks and NOT to do any aggressive massage.
Someday I\'ll take some more pics.....it\'s just not that convenient, kids and all-

Glad to hear all is well Soma. I\'m very happy you decided to act more quickly when you started having issues. I\'m also reassured (as I\'m sure are many) that you are considering a future round. Shows that even with a serious complication this procedure does \'come around\'. Good luck with your progress. Regards

Great news!

I m glad to hear that you have recovered. It is very good news to me especially since I still have an implant. I was concerned about infection as well.Truly a good Doc with some true compassion for even his former patients.

Yahoo! Glad to hear...

Soma, how are you man. update us and let us know you are doing well.

Shouting out to my bro Soma!!! How are you brother?

I\'m doing well all, thanks for the shouts-
My lack of posting results from lack of issues! Life is good and my gains are stable. I just started Hanging again (probably why I got on this site today) and am hoping gain a little length back (lost slightly after I stopped Hanging).
I plan on doing a round three, not for Girth so much as the aesthetic this time. I have a couple of asymmetries. I\'ll be sure to take antibiotics for a couple of weeks afterwards!!

Good to hear from you brother. What are your current stats? How are you Hanging with PMMA? So glad you pulled through that infection!
Best,
M7

Wut Wut. I was scared taht something bad happened and thats why u didnt wanna come back. I concur with M7 what are teh stats and how are u Hanging. What will happen at teh base if u get a few cms of length from Hanging?

^Bump^ Hehe

I\'m Hanging with the grip system 3-4 times a week for 30 min + and only using 10 lbs. I was pretty happy with my length and am only trying to stretch the skin back out, so I\'m not as dedicated as before.
M7- my currents stats are 7.25 BPEL & 6 mseg. I believe the diminishing bella and PMMA have stabilized and these are somewhat solid gains at this point.
I will seek another (3rd) round in the fall, with the goal being another .25 Girth and aesthetic improvement.

Thanks my friend. Are you ever concerned about damaging the implant/PMMA? Do you feel one could gain length by Hanging 10lbs? I am wanting to gain 1/4\" to 1\". Any advice?

Guess it \'s been quite a while now (maybe 5 years). No loss in Girth- though I have a few nodules around the injections sites. All in all, my penis is still really fat. If I wasn\'t married I would be self conscious about the nodules and probably go back and have them fixed/removed. Just thought an update would was in order-
