Thanks for taking the time to comment. It means a lot to me.

The support of our spouses is so important. I happened to mention to my wife about my comment that “we’re all in the same boat and it ain’t the love boat”. She reminded me that it also isn’t the “Titanic”! What a terrific partner I have!

I just finished seven weeks of pelvic radiation and since then there’s even less life “down there” but I’m not giving up. I too, am experiencing an extremely small amount of climaturia. The connection my wife and I have, no pun intended, is important to us and I think we’ll find a solution that works.

Thanks for sharing your experience about the TRI-MIX injections. I figured I should give it a shot, no pun intended again.

All things considered I feel fortunate that if I had to develop Stage 3 locally metastatic prostate cancer I got it at a time when there exists treatment protocols with hope of a cure or at least long-term management. I also feel fortunate for fellow Forum members like you and others who take the time to share their experiences. Connecting with fellow PCa journeymen has been helpful in eliminating the loneliness that I originally felt when I was diagnosed. We’re all members of a club that we never wanted to join, and I appreciate the commitment of people like you to make the journey for people like me an easier one.

Thanks again for your comments. God bless you. All the best for success on your journey.

"It's not the Titanic." Those four words almost made me cry (damned Lupron emotions). I like this boat metaphor a lot. You made my day and gave me a lot to think about. Thank you.

Thanks for your kind words.

The Trimix works almost too good! From my experience I would start at a lower dose and go up incrementally until you achieve the result you want. Be careful not to take any Cialis/Viagra/Levitra within around 48 hours before the use of the Trimix. The only danger of the drug is priapism (prolonged erection lasting 4 hours or more requiring medical intervention). From everything I know this isn't a big concern as long as you don't mix the oral ED agents or start with a super high dose. Like most men I was apprehensive about the injection part but with the very small needle (27 g) it feels like a tiny prick (sorry for the pun!) with the whole thing lasting < 5 seconds. I'm sure your Urologist will go over all of this in detail.

Good luck and God Bless you and your wife!
