Re: Where do we all come from

I have been a member here for a few months, but have not been on recently. I am 34 years old with ED due to high blood pressure and Type II diabetes. I am treating my ED with the use of a vacuum device and Osbon rings.

Re: Reinventing yourself

When full on ED hit, I would still masturbate like normal but at most I would have a 50% erection, mainly just a little thickening. Other times I would use lots of lubrication and rub and massage the head of my penis. Other times my wife would hold one of her vibrating eggs on the head of my penis. ...

Re: What's in a name

I think this was probably part of the reason why in the US the name was changed to erectile dysfunciton instead of impotent. We were not powerless, just that something was causing the erectile response to be dysfunctional, meaning not work right. Impotent is the wrong word to describe ED.

Re: ED, Size and Treatment

Actually I went back through your original post, and I do not see where you said you are not getting enough sleep so I just assumed that. If you are not getting enough sleep (which on its own will cause tiredness, ED, etc.), you could also be experiencing a drop in testosterone levels, which will al...

Re: My personal experience with pumps

One thing I have found is that if I get an erection or at least semi-erect on my own and have the constriction rings and lube handy, I can slip the constriction ring I use with my pump on my semi-erect penis and get a good erection. It may not be as impressive as what the pump gives me, but it is go...

Re: ED, Size and Treatment

I only have a few minutes because it is almost 8am on the eastern coast of the US and I have to head out for work. A couple of observations. First you mentioned sleep apnea. This most certainly can cause ED. You are not getting enough sleep and you are tired as you mentioned. This affects performanc...

My personal experience with pumps

This message is rather long, but please read through it carefully as I hope to give some good advice on using pumps to treat ED. I know most men have difficulty using Vacuum Erection Devices, aka VEDs, aka penis pumps, as treatment for ED. I know several guys here have them, but have not had much lu...

Re: Intorduction - Looking for a Pump.

I use a pump too, but my current pump is far from being retired, so I can't offer you any help there. I have been using the pump since June of 2008, and must say that it has worked great for me and both my wife and I are very happy with it. I have ED due to high blood pressure and type II diabetes(3...

Re: Hello and introduction

It was good talking to you too last night and seeing someone familiar. I see a few people I recognize from other boards I have participated in. Infact, a guy here named JackP was on a yahoogroup that I used to be a member of. He provided me a lot of help with the use of vacuum therapy for ED when I ...

Hello and introduction

Hello. I joined up a few days ago so I thought I would post an introduction. I found this forum while searching for information on the use of vacuum devices and vacuum therapy which led me to some information on vacuum therapy at a prostate cancer forum, which then led me here. From reading a few po...
