31 year old para...

Postby superwheels » Mon May 02, 2011 4:48 pm

Hello everyone. I'm 31 and paralyzed from the waist down. I've been using the injections. But would like to get something that can be more spontanious. Plus the injections don't work that well. I've talked with a urologist before and he said that with me being younger then 55 he.wouldn't do the implant... So here I am single and every sexual experience since my accident has been a sad one. I have no feeling in my man parts. And I'm confined to a wheelchair. And impotent. One of those can be fixed with a implant. And will be talking with a new Dr on Friday. Are there any people on here like me? Would like to read or talk with someone in a similar position as me. Thanks

Super,

Stand by. there are a couple of very young guys with implants who have so commented on this forum. I'm sure they will reply. Sorry to hear the injections are not working. Have you tried different formulations? Bimix, trimix, quadmix, and even the different ratios in each of those? It may be worth checking into.

Good luck. Keep in touch.

I have only used edex in different doses. The outcome of all attempts was a fairly hard erection that lost its hardness fairly quick during sex. And also the length of time it was erect became the down point to adding more. hard on for 4.5 hours.. so time to go another route in my opinion.

I've got a decade of age on you... but even when I saw a doc about an implant, he had no issues about my being under the 50 year old mark.
I think you're doing the right thing seeing another doctor!
The one thing you'll have to take into consideration, is that implants do not last forever. It's feasible that you could need 2 or 3 replacements in your lifetime.

Good luck and let us know how the next apppointment goes.

Ya I'm not worried about getting replacement parts. I just need the ability to be spontanious. Girls my age are looking for excitement and I want to be able to perform when the time arises ill keep up dates and when.I get the go-ahead from the Dr ill start a thread about my exp.

Well, super, if you've only used EDEX, then there's a whole array of alternatives in the injection world. Study up and ask about some of those. You may be able to postpone the surgery. Just saying.

Hey super,

About a year ago, before I got my implant, I ran into a girl at a party a friend of mine had. Don't get the wrong idea, I'm 58 and happily married and my wife was there, but get a few drinks in me, and I'm a conversationalist.

Any rate, it turns out she was the daughter of the best friend of the lady throwing the party (my friend). His name was also Dave, and I had met him several times previously, but this was the first time meeting his daughter. As we spoke, it turns out she worked for a urologist who did implants and was very well informed about injections, implants, etc. We had quite a conversation.

Anyway, her father is also a paraplegic who has an implant. He fathered her with an implant. She is in her mid 20's and Dave is around 50, so he was under 30 with an implant when he fathered her. I think he is on his 3rd now. So, tell your doctor he can go without sex until he's 50 if he wants to, but you have no intention of doing so. This is a completely arbitrary rule on his part, there is no practical reason anyone who has reached adulthood could not be implanted and updated every 10 to 20 years for the rest of his life. This isn't like knee replacement, where a chunk of bone has to be taken with every update.

Go for the wood!
