New guy

[Rickey11]

Thank you Rickey.

I am in New York on Long Island and the compounding pharmacy is about 70 miles away. It is the one my urologist uses and he forwarded the prescription directly to them. They charge 120.00 for a 10 ml vial of 30/1/10 trimix with 30 syringes and alcohol swabs, plus 15.00 Fed Ex overnight shipping (135.00 total cost).

There is no rhyme nor reason why I have had the ED (mostly in the form of maintaining rather than getting, although more recently "getting" has become an issue too), since I have no real medical issues relative to ED and have always been, and am now, very physically fit.

In past years, I have had testosterone injections (15 years ago due to low T levels), yohimbe prescriptions, Muse, and all the current ED medications, all under a urologist and endocrinologists watch and nothing worked satisfactorily. I stopped the testosterone injections for several years but as a result of my GP's recommendation because of continued low T, I went on the Testim gel 1% topical and have been on it for almost 4 years, with blood tests every 4 months to monitor. My levels have been very good (actually slightly high, but within range for my age) during the entire time, but it did not give me any significant improvement in the ED.

I do wonder, however, if the testosterone replacement therapy might have contributed to my BHP and hence, frequent urge to urinate with weak stream.

So, there are no definitive answers other than the results with the injections are like none I have had before, in that they are amazing.

I feel like by using them I can get back, also, some of my confidence, and help eliminate that psychological fear of failure that I believe contributed to a worsening of the ED problem.

I am happy that I located this forum and I am happy to share my story and hear of others. It is comforting and enlightening.

Hi, glad to hear from you! I don't think that the testosterone therapy is related to BHP, as when we were young men, our testosterone levels were very high. (mine was 1287 when I was 23 years old), and when young, no prostate problems occur among most young men.
In fact, almost no urinary system problems occur in young men even though their testosterone levels are very high-comparatively speaking.
I keep my testosterone level at around 900, and have had no prostate problems whatsoever in my 62 years on this earth. I inject 200mg of testosterone biweekly, (self administered).

Your ED is likely related to venous/circulatory problems, as if you're physically fit and don't have diabetes, this is the most likely scenario. With type 2 diabetes I have circulatory and neurological problems to contend with, so I am thrilled at the results that trimix gives me!
Occasionally I have to contend with a 6 hour erection, but I know how to manage this without a trip to the hospital. No after effects have plagued me during the almost 2 years that I have been injecting, and no loss of sensation or Peyronies disease have developed.

I know New York well, by the way, as I have one sister that lives in NJ, and one that lives in VT. I visit them once a year. You get a great deal on the trimix, as I have to pay about $150 for what you get out there, and I have to drive 150 miles to Las Vegas to get it!

Thanks Rickey...I believe you are correct about the venous/circulatory thing and my Urologist did mention this as the probable cause as it is usually the cause when an athlete has ED.

What is your trimix dosage and how often do you inject? Do you find the same reaction from your injections irregardless of the side you inject on or is it at all different depending on the side injected? I am still trying to determine this.

I am really surprised at just how little I need for a good erection. Have you found it necessary to increase your dosage after two years to achieve the same results?

Hi, my dosage is comparatively low at, papaverine 17.85, phentolamine .59, alprostadil 6. I inject 2 or 3 times a week. I encounter varying responses on either side, and it appears that the location of my injection affects the efficacy of the injection.
If I give the injection in the right spot, (approx in the middle of the penis), I get the 4 to 6 hour erection. If the location isn't exactly correct, I get a one hour erection. If I vary the dosage a little, I can also cause the erection to last longer and be harder too. At times, there seems to be NO logical correlation between location and dosage! Once in awhile it seems that trimix just does what it wants to, lol.

In the two years that I have been injecting I have not seen ANY need to increase the dosage whatsoever, as it is still as effective now as it was in the beginning.

I must add that once in a while I increase the dosage by .01 or .02 ml if my wife feels extra frisky! This will enable me to have an erection for a longer duration and remain extra hard for the time period I desire. I have gotten to the point where I can manage the duration and hardness by slightly adjusting the dosage.

Hello...just curious is there a home remedy for a 6 hour erection?

Hello...just curious is there a home remedy for a 6 hour erection?

Rickey and Donnie....

I wanted to ask Rickey what he was doing for an erection that would not subside. I am familiar with the Sudafed, nasal spray, ice pack, and exercise antidotes but was wondering if Rickey had any other tricks to tame the beast. LOL.

Also Rickey, how many units are you using for your injections.

I tried 3 units(.03 ml) today on the seemingly less responsive side I referred to previously (right side) and had poor results. 3 units last time on the left side yielded what I feel was the ideal erection. Hard, but not so much that it was overly hard and somewhat less sensitive from the hardness to a point of almost being slightly painful, and lasting for 2 hours.

I am thinking at this point I may use 3 units on the left side and 5 units on the right side.

I will also keep a focus on the place along the shaft and see if I get a varying response as Rickey did.

Also, do you guys ever reuse a syringe?

Hi, what I do is lift weights and jog up and down my stairs on my deck outside. I also use nasal spray and sudafed as well. A six hour erection is rare, though I DO experience them about once a month or two months. As I have said previously, I have never had any lasting side effects, peyronies, or loss of sensation. The weight lifting seems to help the most, as it diverts the blood.

Hi, I use .11 to .13 ml per injection, which would correspond to 11 to 13 units. I NEVER reuse a syringe, as this is risky at best! I use strict sterile technique, as I was a registered nurse for many years before I got into the stock market. I still use and remember my training as a nurse to this day.

@stayingyoung, my BEST trick is lifting weights, as this seems to cause a deflation of the prolonged erection. Jogging around the stairs and property helps too!

Rickey... Thank you for sharing your education with me. It is very helpful in my early learning stage here.

Upon my first injection at the Urologists office where they gave me 28 units as a starting point (fortunately on my right side which seems to be the less reactive side relative to dose), they sent me home with an erection that wound up lasting over 6 hours. They mentioned nothing to me about the possibility of this and what to do if it happened.

I did everything I could based on all the internet information including 120 mg Sudefed, ice packs, knee bends, and nasal spray into the urethra.

I am wondering if in an emergency priapism it would be advantageous to actually inject the nasal spray with the insulin syringe directly into the penis as such with the trimix.

Do you have any thoughts on this, and if it makes any sense, what would be a dosage to use?

As it stands now, the chance of priapism is my biggest concern in that the last thing I want to do is go to the emergency room with this issue.

Talk about ironic. For years my big fear was not being able to get and maintain an erection for sexual performance and now my big fear is the thought that I may not be able to lose it. LOL
