A good step forward

Postby BrokenArrow » Sun Jun 20, 2010 2:57 pm

Since my last post, I've used trimix at about 0.02 mL a couple times. My sensitivity to trimix is very high now with both injections resulting in over 3 hour erections and painful response to the alprostadil in the trimix.

My trimix prescription was diluted to 50% with a saline solution, so trying to gauge that small amount in the syringe is difficult.

I had some 20 mG levitra left over from last year. Then, it only gave me a headache and stuffy nose. I cut one in half and about 30 minutes later...stuffy nose and no headache. However, got to 100% with very little stimulation from my wife. I rolled over and tried to get on top and the erection faded some. Rolled back on my back...and 100% again. Maybe if I took the full dose it would've stayed 100%?

I've read that venous leakage can cause the fade. But, I'm real happy I got the response I did :D

I have an appointment with ED doc in a couple of weeks to go through this. In the meantime, I'm going to get my script for levitra refilled.

Couple of questions...

1) Does the stuffy nose go away with more use or maybe one of the other oral drugs may be better?
2) Is the fade venous leakage and will it improve with oral drug use?

Pretty happy about this latest development...hope it continues.

I was just logging on to ask a question that you just answered for me - whether a pill of one variety or another in addition to the trimix would help - I've used just the trimix about 5 or 6 times and although much better results than with pills alone, definitely not 100% - I'll try the combo soon and see what happens.

My experience with the pills before trying injections was that cialis produced the least side effects - then levitra - viagra was the worst.

Interested to hear how the combo did for others.

My initial post here may have been misunderstood. I was not doing trimix and levitra at the same time. Actually my ED doc strongly discouraged me from doing that.

I was getting so sensitive to my trimix that I decided to try just some levitra I had left over from last year...it didn't work back then. I think the trimix jump started my recovery to the point where levitra alone is now working....
