Hi, I was referred here by the PCRI (Prostate Cancer Research Institute) and have been reading and learning for a couple of weeks. At 53 I had a RRP on Oct, 2011 and have been and working through the side effects, one which is ED. No previous ED issues and generally healthy and active. My cancer was fully contained and after 4 weeks my URO started on rehab, pills, pump and now 3+/- months I've added Trimix to the pool. I will continue to look and learn and plan on sharing my Trimix experience for others and to learn more for myself.
thanks Paul

Re: New to the Club
Welcome Paul,
We have similar histories in that we both had to deal with Prostate Cancer and ED.
It sounds like you have an excellent URO who has you on a good recovery regimen.
I developed ED Post-Prostatectomy in February 2004 at age 65 and had never experienced any ED problem prior to that.
The ED Treatment Modalities which you listed did not work satisfactorily for me.
After much research and having the opportunity to speak with 2 men who underwent the Coloplast Titan Penile Implant Procedure, I had my Titan Implant Procedure December 13, 2007.
I had battled with ED for over 3 years at that point.
I was blessed in that the Titan Penile Implant completely corrected my ED and restored both my sex life and the emotional intimacy with my wife of 45 years.
I was concerned that I might lose sensitivity in my penis, however, I actually have more sensitivity in my penis now than before my Titan Implant Procedure. I attribute this to the fact that the surface blood vessels and nerve endings are not affected by the Procedure and a healthy blood flow is maintained to the surface of the penis.
I am also Co-Chairman of the UsToo Prostate Cancer Support Group at Hackensack University
Medical Center in New Jersey. This is an International Organization for Prostate Cancer Survivors.
You may go to www.ustoo,org to find a chapter near you. I highly recommend this Group to all my
fellow Prostate Cancer Survivors.
The FT Group has a bunch of great guys who are always willing to reach out to other men suffering with ED. Take advantage of the wealth of knowledge that exists in this Group.
Never hesitate to ask a question or express a concern. You are among friends here.
Wishing you continued success with your treatment regimen.
Bob
