Implant Journal - My story and getting an implant in the Canadian health care system with PHOTOS

Yes - there you go two of us back to back!

I’ll message you.

Okay - I’m home.

Big swollen balls and all wrapped up. Getting used to the bulge. Just taking it easy on the coach. Will update when I have more progress healing.

You are lucky to be able to have it done in your province .

In Toronto , the only 2 doctors that perform implants are not taking new patients which is frustrating .

That’s ridiculous that the whole of the GTA only has two surgeons and you can’t even access them.

In BC, I know there are at least two in Vancouver plus another one in Victoria and another up Vancouver Island in Courtney.

Have you looked into getting it done in another province, or are you thinking of just paying and doing it in the US?

I wouldnt mind going out of province ot the states but unless i win the lottery unfortunately it aint happening .

I even had a referal from a urologist in the same office with no luck .

If you can’t access a urologist in Ontario you may be able to see a specialist out of province and still have it covered.

Worth checking!

Today was T+4. I took off the bandages which was not as painful as expected.

I for sure have bruising on my scrotum and pretty nasty bruising on my mons likely from the reservoir placement that was not expected

Pain is manageable but I’m happy for the prescription painkillers.

Here’s a few photos.

Last one is my penis before surgery, it was pretty soft and was getting softer by the second when I shop stroking it to take the picture. The others are all from today. The surgeon said he pumped me up to 30% so we’ll see how much things improve over the next few weeks.

T+6 today. Not much of a change from a few days ago. Maybe a bit less pain.

Not the most attractive photo, but here is what my scrotum is looking like with the incision and some pretty good bruising.

Nice result.

That amount of bruising is normal. It will go away in time.

Congrats on a great result. You’ll put smiles on a lot of faces with that one.
