It sounds like you've pretty much found that dose

It sounds like you handled that crisis well.

That sounds like a bit of classic alprostadil ache. However, it sounds like you don't have it too badly. It should diminish with experience.

I think the injections are wonderful and my life would be diminished without them. However they aren't without risk. Personally I wouldn't use them if they weren't absolutely necessary, which for me they are.

As I stated previously, injections aren't risk free. They're relatively low risk but not risk free.

Yes, I wish you continued success.
But like most good things, even that would not keep me hard after so long, so took the last step, an implant. The down side, lost my 6.5" girth, back down to 5.25". But love the fact that I can make it as hard as a rock for as long as I want, whenever I want. And a BIG plus is my flaccid size, I went from less then an inch to 3.5 - 4" all the time, really like that. Wife loves that we can have intercourse again. Use the injections for as long as it works, they are great, but know that when it stops working there is still hope out there!
