Erectile dysfunction (ED) treatments: What works for you?

Hi, Leonard. I hadn't noticed your name lately.

Trimix was one of the options my urologist talked about. It would surely be less invasive than a penile implant. I'm not sure why we didn't pursue it. As soon as surgery can be scheduled - who knows with covid19 running the show - I plan to have the implant, also called a prosthesis. The recovery sounds pretty painful for the first couple of weeks, and I'm not good at dealing with pain, even though I live with chronic neuropathy pain. But it seems to be the definitive treatment for ED.

I don't know exactly what has caused ED. It could be tied in with the # of meds I take, though not 300,000. I take a couple of anti-seizure meds for depression. It's possible that the problem is, partly at least, psychological. I've never talked with a therapist about that possibility because none of them have been qualified to address it.

Hope all is well with you.

Jim

Hi again Jim,,
I just had a thought, have you ever considered trying the tri-mix before you have the surgery just to see if the less invasive method might be effective.
I thought the implant was procedure of last resort, only recommended when all other treatments fail. I guess I’m more old fashion and behind times than I thought. One potential benefit, it may be cheaper in the long run. I remember when I tried Cialis it was $60 a pill.
if your mind is made up do you have the surgery fingers crossed that you don’t have any complications.
Take care Jim,
Jake
