When I was 59, I had first symptoms of sporadic neuropathy which occurred about the same as mild ED. I did did not know it was neuropathy at the time, and my PCP kind of shrugged off my neuropathy symptoms. Fast forward 3 years, both got worse. For the last 4 years. I have numbness only (no pain) in my feet/toes, and it is responding to treatment. No luck with the ED though.. Is there a cause and effect? Who knows.
