I know - if there is any damage to nerves the recovery is slow but definitely happens in most cases. Some members here needed almost 2 years for ED to resolve and that is exact time that is mentioned in most papers. If there is a problem with continence it resolves usually by 12 mos and for ED it can take 18 to 24 mos. I think that Cialis is supposed to help with blood circulation in that area which promotes better healing.
I am giving my husband alpha-lipoic acid and vit. B12 lozenges because they can help with nerve reparation. Can not do any harm, that is for sure ;).

B12 That's a new one. I'll ask the surgeon.
I'm going back on Tuesday to see how the AUS is getting on.
Should be the last urologist visit. Then it's just blood tests forever.

Yeah, I take a good multivitamin and magnesium since I checked my diet and magnesium was clearly lacking for me. I don't believe vitamins and minerals "fix anything" but rather for me it's just about trying to give my body the nutrients it needs. Unfortunately I just don't eat healthy enough to get it all in my food (which I think is the best way). I've found the Kirkland brand at Costco particularly good value and quality. Best wishes.
