I had a cardiac bypass 21 years ago and a stent 6 years go. In 2007 I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, which is under control. Started experiencing ED in 2010. In addition to the heart disease and diabetes, almost every medication I take for heart disease indicates that ED can be a side effect. Tried Viagra to no avail.
Started doing research on implants around 2 years ago. About 2 months ago I decided to pull the trigger and now have implant surgery scheduled for December 3, 2018, with Dr. Carrion at Tampa General Hospital. Dr. Carrion seems to be the guy for implant surgery in my area. His father was an implant pioneer. Dr. Carrion and his staff have been great. They quickly answer my questions. In fact, Dr. Carrion personally called me this morning to answer a question that I emailed yesterday.
I found the Frank Talk forum around a month ago. It's an amazing resource for ED. Decided to become a member so that I could tap into the ED knowledge of the members before and after my surgery.
BTW, before Dr. Carrion would approve surgery, he told me I needed a clearance from my cardiologist. My cardiologist required an echocardiogram and a nuclear stress test. They checked out OK. While I have health problems, I feel great. Now that the kids are out of the house, I'm looking forward to some special time with my much younger, very hot wife.
