My Trimix Journey started 10 years ago when I first came to this forum. At the time I decided to use Viagra. Which has worked more or less, And unfortunately less over the past few years. It got so bad, my HL wife didn't want to attempt sex. Too many erection failures.

Six months age, September 2021, I reached out to my family doctor who was willing to help get injections, but I could tell he had no experience with ED other than writing script for cialis/viagra. Although he arranged the referral for a my urology visit that took six months to see the urologist in person. Last week's visit was a fairly short visit, showing me how to inject and he graciously answered all my questions.

I went in to one of rooms and the doctor explained the basics of injection. I then drew up 10 units and did the injection. He left the room and told me to massage the shaft, and that he would be back in 5 minutes to see how it was working. The doctor came back and said its working. However, not knowing what to expect, I was disappointed that I only got a chubby. Then the doctor said I only injected 5 units, that had he put some back. I went home could feel it remain a happy chubby for about 2.5 hours. I then waited 5 days to get the prescription.

I got the prescription this week. My wife and I talked about trying the Trimix for sex that night. We had gone for almost 3 months without sex, which I believe is the longest we have gone without. And we both have be pretty irritable about no sex. We got ready for bed and I injected 10 units of Trimix. And within about 10 minutes had a partial erection. To be honest I was disappoint as I was probably 80% hard. In order to hopefully have a better erection and used the cock ring and we proceeded with sex.
The sex was bit awkward, since I at least had a partial erection. Normally I am flaccid when we start. The sex was almost like relearning how to reconnect sexually.
My wife was happy, although I came before I wanted, But was able to proceed, with semi erection. Although it worked, I think it could have worked better?

I had asked the doctor during my visit about possibly needing to increase the dose if needed. But he insisted to only use 10 units.
In my brief (2 minute) conversation about my ED with the urologist, I think I gave him the (the wrong) impression that I have a milder case of ED. Fact is I've used a cock ring for 20 years, and am unable to perform without taking at least 50mg viagra. Plus my erections have be fairly weak for the past three years.
The next time I do plan to increase dosage by a couple units.

Did my second injection and absolutely nothing happened?
I'm pretty I hit the right spot. It's as if I delivered a blank.

My wife was so upset. I was upset too but I feel so stupid. Wtf?

PS
Last night my wife was putting together her sexy music playlist. So I asked if she was interested. She said yes. So I draw up Trimix 15 units and injected using the 1/2" needle the pharmacy provided at the 1pm position. And absolutely nothing happened. My wife was not happy and I wanted to die.
I'm now wondering if the injection went all the way through on the underside of corpora cavernosa using the 1/2" needle.

Being new to injections I didnt try a second injection not knowing if a delayed reaction could cause "big" problems.

So now I have 1 for 2 hit rate which is worse than when using viagra. Tonight I plan trying 15 units again, and pray God it works.

I would go to 20 units and make sure you inject into the proper location.

I think you missed with the injection. Don't bump up the dose too dramatically until you get your injection technique worked out. You might get an unpleasant surprise if you suddenly hit the correct spot having increased the dose substantially. I often recommend some solo practice until you get the injection thing down a bit so as not to have the issues with the wife. I sent a PM.

sog,

It does sound like you might be missing the mark?
A couple of things to consider:

Are you plumping up as much as possible before trying to inject? It can take a few minutes of squeezing and wagging to get there but helps very much to have a bigger target.

Can you see where you are injecting (no gut in the way?). Also I always 'lay down' the plumped shaft to the left or right thigh/hip to get a solid and visible area to inject on.

Some guys and all docs just want to inject in a quick jab .. but doing so eliminates any real feedback about if you hit the corpus. When i injected I always placed the needle at the spot I wanted and slowwwly dug it in feeling for when it pierced thru the sheath (and then got easier). Yeah be a man, sacrifice for hardness!!! And of course once in did not go any further in case, as you said, you might have gone thru or glanced off. (I always used shorter syringe needle than 1/2" too).

If you are not in the corpus, the injection will usually balk and be hard to inject .. but if it is inside, the injects are as easy as if you were just injecting into the air.

So, what have you got to report??

does plumping up work a little easier? i ask only because i have read here that plumper it is it may bleed more once the needle is pulled out seeing as there is more blood in the shaft.

last night i injected on the more difficult left side and noticed that it was a little difficult to push the plunger. the medicine did go in, did not bruise or pool under the skin, but i noticed that the effects last way too short for my comfort. i expected a couple of hours and had to settle for about 30, 45 minutes. could that be why? just looking for an explanation from more experienced people. this was injection 15. i keep a diary and notice that most of my shorter times have been when i inject on the left side. thanks.

If you're capable of fluffing up I don't see a down side to trying it. If you bleed more then don't continue the practice. If it in fact helps, then go for it.

IMHO, you clearly had a partial miss. As Jim said, pay attention to plunger resistance. If it's more difficult to depress the plunger, then stop and adjust your depth in or out until it is easy to depress the plunger. Plunger resistance is what I go by. Not all plunger are easy to determine plunger resistance with. You may need to change brands. The often stated best brand, BD, does not work well as the plunger is too stiff. Easy Touch works well. Also as Jim stated, depress the plunger slowly so that you have time to feel the plunger resistance. If the plunger is difficult, you're in the wrong spot!

Good luck.

When you say plumping, Are you referring to VED (penis pump), or masturbating to get semi erect or something else?

Looking back (now) I suspect my Corpora cavernosa, was shrunk and hiding, causing me to miss the spot.

As far as plunger resistance, I was only concerned about sticking the needle in the right spot in my little guy and making sure the medicine was injected.

I do have a bit of a tummy, Long gone are my skinny days. Making it difficult to see!

My wife is a nurse, not sure if she would help inject or not. She told me last night that she has given 1000's of injects for other meds.
I sort of doubt she would find it sexy. But who know, I'm sure if we got this down I'm sure she might find it rewarding. But I'm not counting on it.

The more common idea is just a bit of chicken choking to get it a bit fuller. If the option is available a little fondling by the wife might be effective, or fondling of the wife if that works. Some guys do use a VED for that. I tried it but then got a bit of hematoma at the spot. But if it works for you go for it. Unfortunately not an option for me.

I'm no expert but I doubt that is correct. You just missed.

Nope, go slow and watch for that plunger resistance.

OK, it's use the imagination time.

If my wife was a nurse I think I'd start here:

From here: https://www.yandy.com/collections/sexy-nurse-lingerie. I have absolutely no experience with them. First link I found but I like the picture.

Anyhow: Put wife in outfit. Give her a serious "tongue lashing" (I shouldn't need to explain) for not being prompt, or late, or whatever to get her hot. Then lay back and instruct the naughty nurse to do her job if she wants to get paid or wants her reward. Or whatever. You get the idea.
