After a year from when I scheduled my initial consultation to now, it finally happened! The procedure took about 5 hours at Henry Ford doing the robot assisted hybrid PPT-PI vaginoplasty. Currently in recovery for about 6 days before I’ll hopefully be discharged to go home to continue my recovery.
The buildup and anticipation leading up to the surgery date was probably the worst part so far. My pain is currently tolerable, but we’ll see how it is once I need to start moving around more 😅
Not OP but I had surgery a couple years ago. I had phantom dick for 2-3 months and it was really weird while it lasted. It wasn’t a constant sensation or anything just periodically my brain would fill in what it expected something to feel like (such as putting on undies) then there would be a moment of confusion. Sometimes it was like my balls were itchy but I had no balls.
The real trip though has been over the last couple years my brain has been replacing memories of my previous equipment with the new gear. It’s led to some disjointed memories where I might be in a sexual experience that doesn’t work without a dick but try as I can to remember it accurately I just get a paradox.
wow, that’s mad. I never thought of phantom sensitivity in this context. Phew
