TOPIC: Itching

Anybody else have crazy itching after their procedure? It seemed to have started when I started growing. Is this collagen related?

I haven\'t had PMMA, but I\'ve read hundreds of progress reports, so can say with confidence that itching is normal and to be expected. At the end of the day the collagen forms due to a foreign body reaction and it makes sense that would itch.

Thanks Hoddle. It\'s Day 11 for me and it\'s still itching. Still growing I guess.

Smokdu, it\'s been awhile since your last update. How\'s it going?

It\'s been a busy fire season so I haven\'t had much time to journal. So here\'s a quick update:
After initially looking like a Frankendick, things settled down. I was almost up to my goal of 1\" gain, 1 month after the procedure. But apparently it was still swelling, because it started dropping everyday and has now (almost 3 months out) settled at a modest .5\" gain.
It\'s quite disappointing to be at/very near your goal, and then lose most of it. But, I planned on a round 2 anyway, which I\'ve already scheduled. I\'m happy for the .5\", but still want to reach my goal.
I have a gap between the glans and circ scar, which Wade assures me will be fixed next round. I have what I call a \"clump\" of material on the lower left side, only noticeable if you look for it. And a slight curve to the right, but only when Flaccid. None really bother me except the gap. I want that fixed.
I\'m still supplementing with collagen etc. and attempting some light pumping as Avanti Derma advises. I will say I hold a pump a lot longer now than pre-PMMA. I did it yesterday, and it\'s still there.
Overall, I\'d rate it 6 out of 10 stars for my satisfaction at this point. I\'m not sorry I did, but it\'s not finished. After round 2, I hope for a 9 or 10.
We shall see.

For those coming across Smokdu\'s reply, this is as real as it gets. No hype, just the reality of a first round of PMMA. Often times you have to do a Round 2, not only to gain more Girth, but to fix irregularities. Bottom line, PMMA is not perfect, but it\'s a practical solution for adding Girth and improving Flaccid hang issues.... today.

Thanks Smokdu

That swelling after the PMMA surgery is so compelling. In my first two rounds my Dick swelled to a 1\" gain and then at 11 days post was down to 0.5\" gain. But I that 1\" gain is what stuck in my head.
