   Path to Potency (Cancer: Prostate board)

1st September 2007
I am 44 yo. I had open surgery four months ago and I am still using 1 pad/day.

No erections so far. Occasionally I use the pump. I also tried 20 mg Levitra three times, but all I got was a headache. Next week I will see my GP for Cialis.

46 years old 5 months post op, no erections yet, was on 10mg levitra, now given 20mg and yes hot blushes and sore head but no stiffness, although a little bit of reaction, also given muse pellets to try, has anyone used these?

Hi :
My path was similiar to yours for first three or four months following RPP (Open Procedure) 6years ago at age 69. Was advised by my surgeon to use
all means and he meant ALL MEANS to retrain the nerves governing erections and blood flow to the penis. He prescribed 100mg Viagra or 20mg Levitra, the Osbon Erec-Aid VED,erotic aids , masturbation nd anything else to stimulate the nerves and blood supply.I should mention I had bi-lateral nerve sparing surgery by a world reknowned expert and never experienced any incontinence. Also blessed with a patient, persistent, sensitive and eager wife of over 53 years.
We progressed gradually from partial erections with Viagra and manual stimulation which could be enhanced to full firmness with the pump and maintained by the correct size constriction ring to enable successful penetration and intercourse with both acheiving orgasm. However this isn't to say there weren't a few failures along the way. If the erection softened before climax it was always possible to firm up by reusing the pump.
A large part of the success was persistence, patience and never evaluating
performance with invideous comparisons with pre-surgery sex. It will never be the same but different doesn't mean worse just different, fulfilling and more interesting since one never knows what to expect. You're young, hopefully cured of P.C. in good health and with many year of good sex to come.So do the work, don't judge and let the good times roll.
