Trimix dosing and hospital trip

[TRT2011]

I'm 50 yrs old and started having problems wih ED over the last 5 years with only marginal success with pills, Viagra etc. I set an appt. with a Urologist who prescribed Trimix injections for me with a starting dose of 20 units, the strength was 10/30/1. Cost me $50 with insurance.

My first injection was only 3 units because i was a bit of a chicken about the whole ordeal and had very little reaction with only a hint of stirring in the erection dept. About 4 days later I injected 7 units (only 7 lines on a 1/2cc syringe) and had a most excellent result within a few minutes. Very good erection like I haven't had in decades but the problem was it would not go down.

4:00am injection (7 units), erection within 2 to 3 minutes
6:00am still rock hard, took (2) 30mg sudafed
7:00am same as before, took (2) more 30mg sudafed
8:00am Its been 4 hours no change, called my Urologist office and they instructed me to go to the emergency room.
9:00am In the emergency room told them i had Priapism due to a reaction to medication and luckily the nurse at the desk knew exactly what I was going through and immediately sent me in to an examining room without having to fill-out any forms or ask me bunch of questions out in the waiting area. Wearing one of those patient robes with a erection sticking out is quite an experience.

Emergency rm Doctor is examining me is asking me if I took anything else because my blood pressure was 175 over 120 and told me I was risking a stroke if that didn't come down, i told him my blood pressure wasn't the only thing that needed to come down. it turns out one of the side effects of sudafed is increased blood pressure so watch out for this guys. My BP is normally around 130/80. Doctor didn't want to give me any other meds because of my high reading, in the meantime he calls my Uro's office (my regular Dr. is on vacation) but the office recommends I go see another Uro dr. who happens to be about 5 minutes away from the hospital, they say he will be prepared to treat my condition there and will see me immediately.
11:00am I've reached the 7 hour mark and am seeing some slow decline in erection as I arrive at the Uro office.
11:05am: Uro dr. examines me and says the ride is about over and that he won't need to give me any treatment.
11:20am Everything is back to normal.

Foot notes, that was a 7 hour erection and I learned a couple of things, it looks like I'm a over-responder to Trimix Dr. says he seen this before though not vey often. It a good thing i didn't start at 20 units which as suppose to be my starting dose. Sudafed did nothing for me to bring down the erection and raised my blood pressure through the roof, The Dr. wrote me a prescription for Terbutaline Sulfate to use to bring down erection instead of Sudafed. He also says its a good idea to start to shut-down the show at the one hour mark to prevent potential problems. Dr. also said that he as had patients tell him smoking a cigarette help bring down theirs but I'm not a smoker. My next injection will be at 4 units I'll work my way up in one unit increments.

Sounds familiar. My first injection (by the doctor) was 30 units and it took over 7 hours before Little Gregory was pointing toward the floor. Deflation begain at about the 4 hour mark, so the uro nurse told me just to be careful. For subsequent injections, I dropped my dosage to 20, then 15, then 10 units and so on. I'm now at 4 units and having more fun that a 19 year old. I've learned that cold compresses (like a wet dish cloth wrapped around the shaft) and walking (pacing up and down) are two things that accelerate my deflation. (Sitting on that boner never helps.) I also try to read something that takes my mind off of anything remotely sexy. I've also learned that the slightest stimulation--touch, thought, visual--and Little G stands right back at attention. I have Sudafed available, but I seldom use it. I ingest enough pharmaceutical chemicals and try not to add any more.

Keep at it. You'll find the right balance. And won't this learning curve be fun!
