Re: before and after pumping after canceroperation

Pumping is working.
I have to tell a little of my background. I am over 65 and was active in my profession and in a healthy sex life for a couple of months ago.
The reason for pumping erections is back in time approximately 7 months ago. The discovery of cancer in the prostate turned the normal way of life upside down. A lot of hospital visits has to be made and at the end of the story my prostate was burned away for the biggest part. In this period I am trying to get my sex life back. The erections I have had so far (without any help) are not strong enough to make penetration possible.
In short that is the reason for pumping. (I own the battery pump system with a 2 inches in width cylinder). And it is working.
To share experiences there are some pictures with this mail.
My way of pumping is as follows.
I pump in two but normally in three steps.
I take time to let the blood flowing into the penis.
Patience has a good effect in the result at the end. In addition to that, I put sometimes warm water in the second step. It gives a good vacuum and a stimulation to open the vanes. Before the third vacuum I let the water out and wait for about one minute after stopping with pumping to let the erection maintaining ring go.
When I look at the end of the complete workout the penis gives a rather good stiffness.
(This after practising for about a week ). The overall time to get a, to my opinion, functional result is about 7 or 8 minutes. In fact the Noogleberry system works well.
Still I have some questions.
When looking to the pictures there are some side effects in compare to my erections before the (prostate) operation. The length of the erection is approximately 6,5 inches. This is almost the same length as in the good old days (7-7,25 inches). The width nevertheless is much greater than before. After placing the maintaining ring, it is not easy to get the (biggest) rubber cylinder ring off. The ring is stuck at his place, difficult to get to the top and almost to small to get it over the corona. (Just about 1,75 inches or more).
It is to understand that the vacuum lets grow the penis in all directions.
But I wonder if the cylinder should be smaller to let the vacuum get the penis more growing in length and blocking it to get thicker. The first days I did pump for a minute shorter but the overall stiffnes was not good enough.
The pictures are taken during the process and over several days.
I hope that I will get some reaction of people with longer experience.

Hi Walks,
We have close age, condition, and device! I'm 64 with atherosclerosis/diabetes/blood-pressure with extra metoprolol due to heart aches from 4 stents.
I too had a motorised vacuum device, Medicare paid for it, but the pump lost vacuuming power within a few dozen uses and I threw it away. I'm waiting for 3rd device to arrive in the mail now, noogleberry's manual 2". 3rd? Yea, seems these things can wear out fairly fast. I used water on first one too, love hot water, but not sure if manual pump got wrecked by the hot water.
My worry also was pulling the tighter rings off, but it seems I got past that with enough gel on my member to make it ok but slightly rough.
Here's the major problem though: What right size rubber rings will be correct and be able to pull over cone also. Tough game. Worse, I searched web and nobody including noogleberry is making u-notched silicon or rubber in varying sizes (noogleberry has said they'll look into it later), consequently reaching ejaculatory orgasm is nearly impossible without a notch, seems one can get only near this.
So I'm stuck with all these circular rings and doing what I can trying to buy right circumference.
Glad to meet you Walks, but I may not get two-way comm with you seeing that your post was long ago, but I hope so.
Take care,
