As someone who has not been able to deal with the pain from Viridal / Caverject, I discussed the problem with a Consultant yesterday, who has agreed that I should move onto Invicorp, as he was fairly confident that this would resolve the problem. As a previous 'low-dose' Alprostadil user, I am hopef...

Does anyone have indicative costs of an implant in the U.K. private system (I.e. outside of the N.H.S)?

My NHS Specialist Nurse thought that the pain would reduce once I got used to the medication, but there is no ...

Would appreciate feedback from members on where they inject to achieve the best results, as I am injecting 3 times a week and want to minimise risk of scarring etc. I have seen advice on the Web which ranges enormously: a) from 1 o’clock to 5 o’clock (and 11 o’clock to 7 o’clock) b) from where the b...
