Thanks .....

It's sometime since I wrote an update so here is a quickie - though again there is not too much to tell.

I have had my implant for over 4 years now (all looking good and still working very well thank you) and any of you that have read my ramblings from the start will know the journey and seen the pictures - some of them filling your screen, sorry I never did get round to resizing some of the photos!

I have said so many times why I began writing this and have to say that most of you now know me and my thoughts better than anyone else.

Thanks everyone for all your kind comments, messages and questions I am so pleased that my writing about my experiences is helping.

Till next time.

How having an implant made me feel - video says it all

4th Anniversary

I'm not posting too much now because as you know my implant is almost 4 years old.

Apart from telling you that I have a good sex life and a penis that looks and feels normal what else can I say.

I will however keep my Blog updated as and when stuff happens so keep an eye out.

As always any question ask away.

All the best.

How times change

I came across this poster on a train the other day.

In the UK we are becoming more and more open about ED - anything similar where you are?

Temperature Changes

It is starting to get cooler here in the UK and I am again beginning to feel the changes in how my implant inflates and how it behaves while deflated,

I have said previously that since my prostate surgery and subsequent implant surgery the skin and tissue of my scrotum and shaft are far more sensitive to any changes in temperature (warm and cold) and that is still the case even after 3 years.

The other thing and I appreciate this could just be me!! On cold days I have always shrunk back - I assume in an attempt for my penis to keep itself warmer. Since the implant I still get that tight feeling but my deflated shaft now becomes much firmer just without the reduction in size.

I have also noticed that along with my own body the implant especially the tubes and bulb behave differently and can when I am cooler be slightly harder to inflate. In my case this means that to some extent the final size of my initial erection is less.  Eventually, I assume because the saline going into the shaft is at body temperature the tissue becomes more subtle and I can inflate further to my normal size making inflation a two stage process.

None of it is a problem but if your implant is newer than mine and it is something you may have happening to you there is in my experience nothing to be concerned about, it is just a case of getting warm and/or adapting.

All the best

Updated Pictures

I thought I would post a couple of photos to let you see what my implant looks like 3 years post surgery.

Apologies if the quality is lacking - I took them with my phone camera.

Visually, inflated or deflated I would defy anyone to know that I had an implant.

As always any comments or questions are welcome.

All the best

It's been a while since I posted.

As you might have noticed I am not updating my blog as often as I did.

The reason....

My implant is everything I want it to be and I am living my life again. What it does mean however is that there is not too much to tell but you can bet I will keep posting and updating my blog.

Like I have said all along I am more than happy to answer any questions you or your partner might have - you only have to ask. I am fine with messenger, skype, email, phone, in person or on here, whatever you prefer.

Even better in my opinion if we are local-ish to each other I am more than happy to meet for a chat/coffee/beer or all three - again just give me a shout.

Changing the subject slightly.

I'm pretty busy anyway but I think I might be on about my 4th mid-life crisis:-

I gave up on the sports car - 4x4 more comfortable. Cycling to keep fit was ok and with a different saddle it was comfortable enough. I just could not get back into it the way I was prior to my implant surgery. As for the tattoos - no more planned yet.

This time I have got myself a Kayak:-

Anyone with a Kayak want to join me?

I live quite close the the sea and a few rivers however I think I'm a bit of a fair weather Kayaker so now all I need is a warm day and preferably warm water.

All the best
