Hi, new here.
Thanks for all the frank discussion and support you show for one another.
I am 74 years old. I am in very good health, slim and in shape. Recovering alcoholic sober going on 9 years. Prior to getting sober I was thirty pounds overweight, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Now all are normal. Early on Viagra worked for quite a while. Then for a long time it wasn’t hard enough for penetration, but was ok for my wife to pleasure me. I then tried daily Cialis, worked well enough for hand jobs. When that stopped working, a year ago, I started Trimix. It took a while to find a dose that worked well enough for penetration. But, it also is going the way that viagra did.
I have an appointment with Dr Munarriz in three weeks. Presuming he agrees that surgery is a good option, I have lots of questions that I’m sure will be answered by him or guys here, But, right now I need to know what the first few months post op are like because we were planning an overseas trip in early October. Am I likely going to want to sit in a plane for a long flight? I’m no stranger to post op pain; I’ve had many surgeries to fix thing that broke or just didn’t work right.

Have you ever tried a VED (penis pump) and tension ring(s), to obtain an erection? It's a lot easier than getting surgery, if it works for you. Good luck with whatever you decide.

Depends on when you get it, I would say if you get it in July you should be fine for October, September I would wait till I got back.
