Injury and my lost inch after almost 20 years of kept gains

Ok I have been on this site for almost 20 years, an active member, a moderator and now a moderator alumni. I started in 2003. I went from being A solid. 6 inch thick cock. My original user name was 678, because I was a 6 incher wanting to be 7 and then 8. Well when I grew to just over 7 inches, Thunder allowed me to change my name from 678 to 789 . I kept that 7 inches for many years with little or no effort. During my marriage, divorce and my Swinging days I made use of every inch. And all I learned here about ejaculation control, cum loads, flavor, size and even met a couple of members face to face, not to jelq or jack, but just to meet and bullshit about life.

This past two years I became very sick. I needed a liver transplant. By the time I got one I went from 225 lbs to 115 lbs. This year has been particularly busy for me. In April I was in a coma and read my last rights. In May I got blessed with a new liver and kidney. In June I broke my back and had surgery while in recovery rehab. In July I had to to be taught to walk and drive again, in August I was eating lunch with my lady friends and just starting to jerk off for the first time in almost two years. In September, I got laid first the first time but a 40 + yo milf that I knew from her swinging days when she and her husband used to party at my condo on the beach, but I was shooting dry shots. In October I’ve gotten laid again and am starting to produce cum again, it started with a clear dribble to now it’s a whitish five inch shot. My doctor put me on TRT and Cialis. So now I beat that thing like it owes me money lol. But I’m back down to 6” and am going to bring my numbers back up while I continue my journey thru my new normal. I dug out my manual pump. I threw out my electric vacuum pump years ago. I’ll be reading your articles on what’s working now. Any advice would be more than welcome. BTW I live in Central Florida.

You made it through all that, you won’t have any trouble getting your gains back. Penis length seems to be a “use it or lose it” thing, but lost gains return easily.

Glad to see you back! I’ve seen you all through the old forum posts.

Holy shut man, you’ve been through some stuff!

Congratulations on your perseverance and I sincerely hope things only improve from where you are right now!

Like you, I’ve been in more of a maintain phase for the last few years, with minimal PE, so I can’t really help with any first hand advice, but I never stopped reading, and what seems to me to be the most promising at the moment is near infrared heating pads (or ultrasound) to keep the tissues at an elevated enough temperature to make collagen fibers more susceptible to permanent deformation, combined with hanging and/or pumping.

I forgot to post my pics. There is one from April 2022 in a coma after my last rights, a couple that are in May within a couple of weeks after my transplants and one in August out to lunch with a lady friend. I will also take more measurements and pics of me currently on my PE progress, since my 20 year old photos are on here, it seems only right to post my current ones. I’m determined to show positive progress. I just dug out my vacuum pump. Next to go find a thin heating pad and I may even try my TENS unit for alternative stimulation while pumping.

What do you think of using a TENS unit for additional stimulation during pumping. It does wonders on my back tissues that ache . Just a thought.

I’ve been looking for posts from people who have tried adding TENS stimulation to their routine, pre or post exercise. I was thinking of placing the shock stickers against my cock and then putting the pump on? Any ideas? Thanks
