@jime51 Almost six months post surgery. Started Cialis daily at 5 mg just after surgery in February. Side effects included back pain, flu like feeling and some confusion. Tried viagara and had to d/c due to allergic reaction. Dr put me back on Cialis but lowered the dose to 2.5 mg. I have been on this for about 4 months without significant side effects.
I write this to let others know that 2.5 mg daily can be effective for penile rehab. I was disappointed when I could not tolerate 5 mg dose regimen. Somehow without knowledge I “thought “ how can 2.5 mg be effective. On July 22, it will be six months from surgery date. Last weekend I had intercourse for the first time naturally, without Trimix.
Make no mistake, my erectile function is nowhere near my prior function before prostatectomy. However, I am seeing and enjoying much progress. I am confident that my erectile function will return completely. I attribute this to the Grace of God, great surgeon, Cialis 2.5 daily , VED daily , Kegels , good diet and exercise and PRN Trimix. Steady Eddie wins the race! Be encouraged!
