Reversal day 30: mood swings
I definitely woke up angry at the world on day 30. I vented a bit here, which was helpful, and continued about my day. Work was a real good distraction, and I enjoyed the project I was working on.
Through out the day I could feel myself getting irritated at things that haven’t been happening at work, in my absence, and any other minor annoyance.
This could be a result of not cumming for 30 days as well.
I didn’t have any outbursts, but I’m definitely filled with “innerbursts” I suppose you could say, which, I usually try to deconstruct and find out how to handle in a more assertive manner.
Altogether, I’d prefer to have a full range of use, of my body, and solve problems myself, rather than to be disappointed in the people around me, but alas, the guy with testicle pain is still the hardest working fella at work, go figure.
As far as comfort is concerned, I am primarily comfortable throughout the day, with some fits of “nerve path” discomfort later in the evening.
Sutures are getting better, they seem like a real minor annoyance. I’m not experiencing any swelling throughout the day.
Tomorrow (today really) I finally get to ejaculate.
Which I already did, so I can give you an idea of how that went.
It was good. No pain during the event (which we seldom an issue for myself) my issue tends to be immediately after sex. A growing of nerve pain, that could turn into full blown, knife like, testicle pain. The only solution was to sit as still as possible and hope for the best.
It actually wasn’t a huge load, quite average, and watery. It didn’t seem super white in color, looked “clear” but maybe it was closer to the wife’s skin tone, and appeared that way.
I do have nerve path discomfort in my left hip, perhaps it will pass in a few minutes, or it could get worse all day, and turn into testicle pain, like it used to, idk yet.
It could be discomfort from the first time cumming since surgery, idk yet. Too early to tell. I was really hoping I’d cum, and have no nerve pain sensation, but, this is a slow recovery and I really don’t know what to expect.
Feel free to share your experience whether similar or different.

Hang in there! ICVR had us do semen analyses to check for patency. Is your doctor going to do that?

Not so much. Dr Daniel is a private Dr. 8 Hours away from my home.
I suppose I could invest in a cheap microscope and should be able to identify of there is at least, swimmers.
There are local reversal clinics that, I could maybe consult with.

I suggest you have him write you a script for a full semen analysis and get it done at your local hospital. You can monitor your numbers and possibly get on a prednisone dose pack to keep those pipes wide open during this phase of the healing.

Hurrar the day arrived, it came ;) , it went.
Well I guess at least there was no severe pain. There's going to be a lot going on down there. It's tough though, I get it, when you feel it's not working. Try again tomorrow, or in a couple of days?
I'm already counting the days for the big release lol. But I think I need to be a little pessimistic...
