Looking for Hope – Pills Don’t Work, Thinking About Injections

[capetownlove]

Hey guys,
I’ve been on Viagra and Cialis for years, but they barely work anymore — half-hard for 10 minutes, then nothing. I’m 56, diabetic, and guessing that’s the cause.
Got a urologist appointment soon to talk about injections. Anyone here had good results? Would love to hear some positive stories — I just need a bit of hope that I can enjoy real sex again.
Thanks and cheers!

You will find many positive injection stories here. I've been injecting for eight years and am very pleased. Injecting is tricky but you can learn, from your urologist and from us.

Before your appointment, go through the "Injections" topic for as many hours as you can, and you will pick up a sense of how to do it.

I couldn't recommend it more. Pills also quit working for me (read my post "Trimix cured my ED and PE." down board.)

Yeah, you're sticking a needle *there*. But it's a small needle and it's not a serious pain and for me, it was well worth it to get a working sex life back.

I concur with Will and Martin and plenty of others here.
The side effects from pills were getting too much- aches, indigestion, and depression, oddly.

Started on injections two years ago, very effective. Once you find the dose, you'll likely get a very reliable core erection for a 1-2+ hours and very little if any systemic side-effects. I don't find the needle painful, its worth the 2 seconds of a slight pinch.

As Martin suggests read as much here as you can before appt; and if/once prescribed be sure to "bone-up" on proper injection technique to understand and fully visualize your approach.
