Hi Gabriel. Thanks for the message!

Well today was my first treatment day. My SW6 from tplaser on DHGate arrived nice and quick to the UK. It's packaged beautifully, really well built and a piece of cake to use. tplaser were also very easy to communicate with.

I did about 3000 shocks in total and I was pretty much just working up and down the penis, focusing a lot at the proximal third of my penis where my injury was. I was going all the way to the very base at times. Where the penis ends (or begins technically) at the pelvic floor. Perhaps 70% of my shocks were to that area. 5Hz, 15 mj. I have more time to play with, so might reduce the Hz further. I was trying my best to run as perpendicular as possible to the penis at all times, but this got trickier as I got closer to the base.

This was all about 45 minutes ago. I can already feel that light generalised engorgement feeling all over in that area.

I've decided to break away from the consensus a little with regards to frequency of treatments per week. The way I see it, this is a workout for the penis. I work out, and definitely can't hit the gym properly every other day for the same muscles group. The workouts would be subpar, I'd get injured, and not gain in the long run. My sweet spot for the gym is around 3 days for full recovery. If it's restarting a high intensity activity I've  not done for a while, like football, then my legs take a whole week to recover after that first match back.

As this is the first proper shockwave workout, I may give it 5-7 days until my next therapy. Then perhaps every 3 days or so. I'll do a week off perhaps after several weeks and see where I'm at.

I'll keep updating.

Oh and I'm also going to be popping a 5mg cialis on each session day. If things are happening down there, more blood can only be a good thing.

Great to hear from you Gabriel.

Thought I would update as I've had three further sessions since my last. I noticed improvement in erection quality and strength pretty much the same day after the first session. The two main factors I have to go on when assessing erection quality is how big/expanded my glans looks, and for how long I can maintain an erection whilst standing. The glans was certainly fuller, and overall erections better, but not pre injury levels. Standing up the erection went within about 10 seconds. 

My injury is to the proximal third of my penis, at the base, to the left of my penis. I've never since my injury been able to palpate anything discernible other than rough fibrous tissue in that area. Well the next day after the first treatment I was able to palpate an area which felt like a hardened ball that had been squished. Maybe like a pistachio or something just sitting at the base of my penis surrounded by softer (but still coarsish tissue). I've never noticed this before, and figure that the shockwaves have done something the surrounding tissue to allow me to feel it so clearly. This I felt, alongside the improved erections was quite promising.

I commenced my second treatment about 5 days after the first. I used the 20mm head this time on 20Hz, and focused on the injury site again, with particular focus to this hardened lump type area deep in the penis. I'd say around 2000 shots between 3-6 Hz. (I'm experimenting as you can tell).

The lump felt the same size immediately after the second treatment, but by the next day appeared a smidge smaller (I hope). Erections have improved further slightly.

I've just finished my third treatment (3 days after the 2nd). This time I started with the 20mm head at 20Mj, 5hz for about 1000 shots. Then I switched the head to the 35mm and cranked it up to 50MJ for another 1000 shots. Still too early to tell but I'm getting that nice post treatment buzz feeling going on down there.

So a bit more on the technical side of things, I know clinics and some studies run their treatments at 0.09mj/mm2. Ultimately this all early science and nobody knows too much. Maybe the wider head does things differently than the narrower head. Maybe using a narrow and wide in combo at the same treatment stimulates the penis more. Who knows. Beauty of owning our own machine provided it's all safe practice. Likewise with the power regimes. So I"m keeping track of the powers I'm treating with

Session 1:
35mm head, 15mj - 0.017mj/mm2

Session 2
20mm head, 15mj - 0.048mj/mm2

Session 3
As session 2 +
35mm head, 50mj - 0.055mj/mm2

How have you been getting on Gabriel? I note you said that you're doing 105mj on the 15mm head. How are you finding it with that high an intensity coming out of the small head? Any noticeable improvements on your plaque?

Thanks for the updates Gabiel & Zapgood. I hope you both continue to see improvement
