I had a double hernia surgery in August. Too much weight in the gym, probably. So sports is not healthy ;-)

Doc said, 87 per cent of men have (during their lifetime) a hernia or more, so not having one is uncommon. He also said some go unnoticed for a long time when not causing any pain and body fat sometimes covers them so you cannot even see them.

The thought of Victorian Dentistry just makes me cringe.

I just filled to 25-1/2” and managed to stop myself while it’s still wrinkled. I dumped in roughly 800ml D10, so who knows where it will stop. I don’t think it will be more than 29”

Thanks, it only grew to 26-1/2”…
I was hoping for striking distance from 30” but even if it never happens I’m still happy with it.

Hey now, there's always next time. Just a little bit more. I have faith in your abilities ;)

Cheers,
Russ.

Pipe, what are you using to seal with? Haven't had much luck with superglue

I use a 2” gauze folded twice into a 1” square taped tightly in place with 3m Durapore for 30 minutes to several hours depending on how much internal pressure is applied with infusion.
The more moderately you infuse, the less time you spend healing and being careful with it to avoid leaking and blisters.
A succession of comfortable gains with a massive floppy is more enjoyable for me than a drum tight melon that can’t be manhandled vigorously for quite some time.

Thanks Russ
I’m enjoying the hell out of this 22” bag I got from only 450ml of D10.

Even after moisturizing yesterday, only infusing 500ml and being very careful I have about five leaks. Hopefully it will heal quickly.
