Meanwhile I can’t get a prosthetic from the V.A.

I cannot get covered oral surgery/reconstruction for multiple benign tumors because it would be dental care and cosmetic.

Do you have a Veterans’s Advocate assigned to you?
Some VA Hospitals, such as mine in San Francisco, have staff to help answer certain questions, or contact certain providers of care. Usually, a vet has to ask for an advocate’s assistance. Most do not. Most don’t even know of such a choice being available.

Have your primary doctor try getting a reaction from them.
If you are eligible for a certain prosthetic, you should be getting it, or at least an estimated date of availability.

Some prosthetics offices are very quiet and very slow.
They may have some volunteer at the front desk who does not really know what their talking about and may be too lazy to get up from the chair to ask about it. That I have seen myself. Call within the first two hours of the morning or right after that office takes lunch. They most likely will take a full lunch and lock the door. Good Luck!

It would appear you need a more sexually-oriented prosthetic...
