You never forget your first sounding.

Mine came at my appointment with my surgeon today, and was… surprisingly painless! I know, right? I was all set to hear horror movie noises come out of my mouth, and nope– he already had the length of it lubed up and pressed down through my dong without me feeling anything more than a mild tightening at the base.

Bad news is, the sounding treatment didn’t unblock the scar tissue that’s in the way of my urine stream, so I have emergency surgery scheduled for Thursday in the early afternoon. My surgeon’s going up my urethra with a tiny camera and a wire, so he can scrape away the blockage where he finds it.
