Hopefully the adjustments will do the trick. Still marching forward!
Cost so far... self pay/no insurance
1st Urologist visit/consultation............................$166
2nd vist with training session and first injection $292
3rd visit for checkup after prolonged erection....$93
Total before prescription and syringe cost..........$551
God I love my country.

This is actually not bad. I've heard of guys going to the so-called "Men's Clinics" and spending more than $1,000 on the first visit.

Yes, I am not really complaining, especially if I can get this all dialed in after 7 years of ED since post surgery. I state the cost because I have seen very little out there on what the total cost can run. I know it will vary depending on location and medical personnel/clinic/office. Just to let everyone know, I found my injection uro through a compounding pharmacy that referenced him. He is actually a PA that works for the clinic but I had to see the urologist first for the consultation and Q and A. ($166). The PA charged the $292 for the training visit and the starter injection. I may have jumped the gun when I went back after my first home injection. I didnt want to take a chance after the 5 hour erection. That cost me an additional $93. May could have saved money if I went straight to the PA but I don't know if that was an option. Anyway...I am taking this low and slow until I get the desired results. Hopefully this will help others who are contemplating this type of therapy.
