New to FT

Hello everyone, just want to introduce myself. I had a radical prostatectomy in 2005, then salvage radiation in 2009. I fixed most of my ED problems with Kegel exercises and Cialis three times a week after the surgery. Had to do it all over again after radiation I’m holding at about 65%-75% of an 18 years olds status. Not to bad considering I’m 56. But it is getting more difficult. The radiation seems to have done more damage than the surgery, or it may be it was the straw to break the camels back. I’m looking into electro stimulation as a cure for ED. Lately there seem to be more talk about that. Does anybody have any experience with this?

woodswalker, Welcome to FT I think you have found a place were you will get answers. I"m a PCa guy as well. Open surgery Oct 08. I tried the pump, pills and have graduated to the injections. I am a happy camper at this point

I saw some post about a new device I think Paul as a clip on it as well on this site. Sounds promising.

E-stim - there's a lot of stuff about that online, but don't know anyone who has really tried it. yeah, the radiation tends to cause a long, slow slide into ED that is hard to treat. When you try the e-stim stuff, let us know how it goes! What about that new viberect? that might be a safe way to start?
