@pmclarksr -- Thank you taking the time to make me aware of Trimix. I really appreciate your comment. I have read up on it (thanks to this blog) and I intend to try it when and if the time comes. Since I'm so soon out of surgery and based on my reading, here's my tentative "plan". 1st -- at my 3 month visit with the surgeon I'll ask which of the urologists at Mayo Phoenix are proficient in penile rehab and schedule a consult to baseline my progress and get his advice on when I should proceed beyond the Viagra (which I was already using before the surgery). I don't know what's a reasonable time to wait, but I'm sure he will. 2nd -- I intend to follow his advice, but what I want to discuss with him is what he thinks about the following: once I've waited long enough and if the Viagra isn't providing a satisfactory experience, then I'd like to progress through trying the other "pills", such as Cialis and Levitra and Stendra to see if one of them works better (for me) than Viagra. If they all fail as well, then next up on my list to discuss with the doctor is the Trimix topical cream. Then after that maybe the Trimix gel or pellet. I'd like to get to the needle only if the other approaches don't work first. It's early enough I'm still hoping I'll get a satisfactory response from Viagra once I've recovered more. Of course, this is what I came up with based on my reading. Since I'm not a medical professional nor have any experience in this, I really plan to rely on the advice from whoever is the penile rehabilitation expert at Mayo Phoenix. In a nutshell, that's my "plan". Let me know if you think I'm missing something or just thinking about it wrong. Again, thanks again for making sure I was aware of Trimix. I really do appreciate it.
