Well...., certainly nothing like you had, in fact didn't even get an exam of anything, kinda bummed!! I was hoping that for once and for all, I would get an answer, but that kinda wasn't the case. I liked the guy O.K., he talked to me about what I had been using, (Viagra & Levitra) and asked if the erections were good with either or both and I said yes, just didn't like the side effects, as you had indiciated. He then asked me if I had ever tried Cialis and I answered no, so he gave me two trial samples of that. He did write a request to have blood drawn to check for testosterone levels and those came back good. The free level was a little low, but nothing too bad.

He did talk to me that probably was age related, (I'm almost 65) and I don't expect to perform like a twenty year old, but I was hoping to do a little better than what I am doing. Anything I have read about ED states that age has nothing to do with it, so I don't know.

Because of your heart meds, I'm wondering if that is why your Urologist put you on injections, and maybe I'm just not to that point if the oral meds are working for me, but I'm sure not fond of the headaches and congestion that go with it. Maybe a small price to pay for the benefit.

So for now, I'm with the oral meds, so we'll see. I wasn't too impressed with Cialis, barely got hard, certainly nothing like Viagra and Levitra, so don't know if I will stick with that or not.

A couple of other questions I thought to ask you, if you don't mind, after you have done the injection and you have an erection, does it go down after you have ejaculated or does it still stay hard for awhile? How long does it take to get an erection hard enough to have sex?

I have thought of asking this PA what other choices there are besides the oral meds. I have wondered about a vacuum device, I know Bonro Industry makes one that looks like it may not be too bad, but I don't know of anyone who has used one and if it did the job or not. Then I wonder if you are able to ejaculate with the tension device in place and the orgasm feels the same.

I did find a device at Wal-Mart that did help some, a vibrating ring made by LifeStyles. That added stimulation seemed to help both myself and my wife, so maybe stick with that and the oral meds, and take Tylenol for the headache afterwards.

Thanks for the continued support, just wished I had gotten a better exam, well an exam....period, but maybe his thought was, he wasn't going to waste his time on "this old duffer", who knows??

Thanks again for concern. Take care of yourself
