got priapism! Went to ER

Five hours is really not bad at all. What works for me is doing like 20-40 pushups and the erection will go away. If it comes back the clock basically resets, that's what Dr. Eid told me.

By the time doctors drained it was about 7 hrs...but thankfully I seem to have been totally ok so far as I can tell. Less than 48 hours later was able to get natural erections, a little sore but more or less OK. A week later everything seems back to normal...thought definitely would not want that ER experience ever again!

Also to update, finally worked up enough courage to try Trimix again last night: Switched from original 40/2/30 to 5/.5/15 formulation... was told to try 10 units I just did 8 (more like 7.5) and I can finally say it worked well in that it was a good experience. Very hard for couple of hours but nowhere as sore or painful as the 40/1/30 formulation. Like it actually felt normal. By 100 minute mark I was beginning to worry so started pseudoephdrine and benadryl. It was still going on and off for another 90 minutes or so but I know once semi-deflated it resets the safety clock so never felt too dangerous. With stimulation it still worked really well up to almost 3.5/4 hrs...maybe I don't even need 8 units.

To anyone reading this and is relatively new to Trimix: please please figure out the specific concentrations in your specific mix...some Trimix are order of magnitude more potent than other ones. And start conservative...better to undershoot and work your way up than overshoot like I did. If you are physically healthy, and ED is mostly psychogenic as it is for me...start very low...8 units of 5/.5/15 is plenty for me already. I might try to even step down from that. And definitely have antidotes on hand and do NOT wait past 4 hours to go ER. Better safe than sorry.
