Re: Post Prostatectomy Erection?
Do a search on here and you'll see the results are 50/50; Some have got the blood flow it back but a lot of us haven't. After 3 yrs, I'm in the "not" category, and my nerves haven't repaired. I had to go to injections 2 yrs ago and sometimes struggle with proper dosing. Many times I can't ...

Re: Anyone have negative effects on Trimix and blood pressure meds?
My bp has been climbing over the past year due to sleep apnea + hypoxemia +polycythemia + and some other nagging probs. I'm seeing cardio, endo, pulm, and sleep drs to find the cause. It's been a challenge getting all the above to look at the whole person and not what's in their sandbox. Hopefully I...

Re: Sleeping on Trimix? After midnight.
We moved our playtime to earlier in the night. I don't like laying in bed with the kickstand down for 3 hrs. I learned my lesson a couple of times by falling asleep, rolled over, and woke up in extreme pain. I don't crawl in bed until I'm drained. I sure miss the bedtime playtime, but it ce la vie'...

Anyone have negative effects on Trimix and blood pressure meds?
Has anyone noticed a difference in the amount of trimix you had to use if your blood pressure meds changed? It may be just me, but I've noticed a change since I started bp meds 2 mo ago. Since the dr doubled my bp meds, I've had to almost double my dose of trimix. I normally use 8-10 units for useab...

Re: Onset time vs duration - a lesson I learned
As others have said... you've found the right mix that works for you. I prefer to go lower since we only last ~45-60 min, and I don't like the 3-4 hr aching chubby. Besides- waiting 5 -15 min is better than nothing at all. I've also learned that you may get different results from each vial of juice....

Re: Post-prostatectomy- my experience and relative facts
^bump I've been seeing many bubbas on here asking for help coping with their prostate cancer diagnosis and the inevitable "what should I do" dilemma... so I bumped this for the newbies. Quick update: - all the muscular/skeletal issues are resolved. I'm back to work and riding my bikes as m...

Re: Radical prostatectomy
Short answer- yes. My RPP was in Jan 2020 and I use trimix ~2x/wk now when I'm lucky. Long answer- TBD on when you and your dr. say you're ready to start injecting again. I recommend you start pelvic floor therapy now to prepare for the surgery. And immediately afterwards. Then get the incontinence ...

Re: How impotent were you from prostatectomy?
RPP in Jan 2020, so it’s been 2 yrs and cancer free. Short answer… completely impotent; no blood flow or morning wood, and normally turtle headed hiding. I think a better question is: who has recovered from RPP and how long did it take? Six months after surgery I tried cialis for a few months- expen...

Re: Trimix Size vs Pump Size
If you're trying to have sex 2mo after a RPP- congrats! You're healing a lot faster than most of us on this forum. I have several other posts if you'd like to read on my recovery coming up on 2 yrs in Jan. To your questions: 1) I got no response on any ED meds. I tried pumping for months and hated i...
