Looking to Bring this to a Close

[Cal2014]

Hi,

I'm a 31yo from California.

I've been suffering from ED for the last 6 years or so, and I'm hoping to finally bring the entire debacle to a close.

I believe that my ED is primarily a result of injuries. - (My symptoms sound a lot like venous leakage, so I may require an implant to be a husband/father some day.)

I guess the other thing I should probably mention is that I became a Christian a few years after I started having major problems with ED. (Obviously having a condition like this calls into question whether it would be right to even pursue marriage anymore, but before I trash the idea entirely and go the celibate route, I'd like to see if there might be a way to salvage the situation, and still get married and have kids some day.)

Glad this forum is here.

Thanks,

Cal2014

I'm glad you came here instead of suffering alone. May I ask what youve tried thus far? Pills, injections?

Cal....
Run, don't walk to a referred urologist. Explain EVERYTHING to him and listen to the advise he offers.

We were intended to be able to procreate... and to enjoy all the feelings such includes.

There is nothing that is going to help the situation by just talking about it ... TAKE ACTION, SOON !

Your post is way too self-defeating man. You wanna get a wife? You wanna have kids? There are solutions - you just need to accept that to surmount this problem you're gonna need to summon up the courage and strength that not alot of people possess.

Forget all this "I don't even know if I DESERVE marriage with this problem" - you need to get out there, get this problem sorted in one way or another and starting chatting to some ladies.

There is hope friend - there really is. Don't give up.

Thanks for the warm welcome, gents.

Wolfpacker,

I've only experimented with supplements so far.

L-Citrulline 750mg
Ubiquinol 100mg
L-Arginine 1000mg
Acetyl L Carnitine = 500mg

I noticed an increase in blood flow and increased engorgement of my CS and glans when I take those supplements, but it's still difficult to maintain an erection. I remember before I got my injury, when I used to get aroused it was like the erection would get locked into place at a certain point, and I'd literally have to wait for it to go down. The opposite is true now, as when I get close to 100% erect, if I do not have some sort of constant stimulation going, I know I'm going to lose the erection within 3 to 4 seconds. My erections are like elusive birds that fly away at the least disturbance now.

I've asked a uro for cialis, but he declined to write me a script. I just asked my primary care physician for a script for cialis last night. We'll see what she says.

Ohohiakane and Seeking, I hear what you are saying.

I did try to do a bit of dating but eventually this ED issue would catch up with me and I'd basically panic inside and run for cover.

I need to feel like I have more of a handle on this whole thing and at least a plan A and a plan B before I approach any more ladies. If God blesses me to meet the right woman some day, when I do disclose this, I want to be able to say, "I have this issue, but these are the treatment options available, here's what I've tried, if I have to get an implant, here's how much it will cost and this is the doctor I'd like to have do the operation, etc." Shows I'm on top of things and can take care of business. Coming here is part of getting all of that nailed down in advance.

Thanks,

Cal

If you've been to a urologist and he wont even prescribe you Cialis, you're at the wrong urologist. You need to find one that deals with male sexuality issues - this is different than a "regular" urologist. Mine not only does all the normal urologist stuff but also does the prostate surgery, implants, prescribes injectable drugs, etc. to overcome ED issues. This is the kind of guy you need to find.
