 Thanks Hoddle. I am waiting for Dr C to call me back but I still have DMSO so I'll give that a whirl. Do you massage the DMSO and ACV into the area?

 This was a normal looking penis until last sunday. I'm on 2 antibiotics . Cipro, Cehpalexin. The penis is now retracted a bit, nocturnal erections do not grow in length any more.. just get hard. Pic 1 sitting with 9 volt battery for scale purposes. the next 2 are standing.. I loved my penis until now. women loved this penis.. Now its a f-ing freakazoid.. The PMMA is hard . I'm afraid Necrosis is going to set in.. Ive seen one ER dr. and my GP and I have a Urologist appt this coming wednesday. unless I end up in ER again.

Wade began phasing out his employment with Dr. C earlier this year. I hate to see him go since he was so good at what he did. But I wish him the best on his new ventures.

 @Charlie1 How are things looking nowadays? The fact that this popped up after 6 years has me worried. I'm at the 6 year mark now, and I've had a dull pain in my left testicle as of late. I went to the doctor recently thinking it could be a hernia or something, but she said it doesn't seem to be of any concern.

 I was going to go to TJ for Kenalog to minimize a bulge I got from PMMA. Do you think DMSO could help instead or could it potentially harden the PMMA

 If you use soap to clean the area, rinse thoroughly and dry. Remember you don't want anything on the skin, including soap residue.

 Hi guys.. Thanks for the responses.
I had the PMMA done at Dr.C`s. nice group. I don`t blame them in anyway.. Good result for 6 years .. The autofat grafts done in Canada. Toronto.
The autofat was not completely absorbed,,
I hate to say, the PMMA was from Dr. C I think we did a combination of %`s and some was put into the fatgraft to bind things, create a base
I have a GF who is suspicious I had things done.. It`s a bit of a long distance relationship.. We were supposed to be meeting in Cuba next week for a week vacation.. I have to cancel.. She dosn`t know anything yet.. I`m hoping for some miracle.
I`ll try to figure out the pics thing.. New here ,, just learning how to navigate.
If someone could let me know the exact formula for the DMSO I have ACV But know it when applied to the skin can be quite dangerous, and can burn. I have to say,, I am very concerned about using DMSO Help!! Thanks.

 I just tried the formula with 2 parts DMSO and then 1 part ACV (mixed in a 3ml syringe - no needle, just the opening). I'll do 3:1 in a few days just to make sure my skin is ok with it. Then I put emu and castor oil on top.

Interestingly, after 10 min I had a reduction in "pain" that I didn't even know I had. I never thought I had any pain or discomfort in that area, but then after it was sitting on my skin for a while - it suddenly felt more relaxed or something. It could be the oil moisturizing the skin, I guess. I am only doing the left side with the major nodules for now - and I can even tell the difference between the two "pain" wise. I never consciously paid attention to "pain" cuz it wasn't pain...but it was something that didn't belong.

I smell like salad...I didn't use that much vinegar but - yea. Strong smell.

I had a hard time putting it on and not having it run down my leg and stuff. And the q-tip kept absorbing it entirely - but eventually I'll get the process down.

 I found some posts googling him (ronielle) - I was just reading thundersplace - This is the thread if anyone's interested. He hasn't posted in this one, but they're discussing it. I have to wait for moderator approval before I can post. I'll keep looking for what he injected. Because I have one very prominent lump left (the other can probably be viewed as a vein) I'd love to inject it in that thing. I'm using it topically for now like Red1975 and you suggested.

 @timid newbie - i havent asked them directly about dmso since the risks are limited and Red was having success, but maybe you should ask. I asked my Dermatologist, and he said it's been around forever and he's not comfortable recommending it because he just doesn't know enough about it.
