VA Hospital Installed Implants

Postby flyingduck2019 » Tue Aug 04, 2020 5:46 pm

Are there any veterans out in the community that have had their implants installed by a VA Hospital? If you are one of these folks would you please PM me with your experiences, how it went, your cost and such.

At the moment, I am fighting with Tricare over them not approving two ingredients that are required to compound my trimix. The two items are probably used in thousands of injectable medications that Tricare approves payment for. I think some idiot got up on the wrong side of the bed or didn't get any the night before my pharmacy tried to process the Trimix claim. I say this because my two previous orders were the same RX and they approved payment for both. Go figure!!!!
Phil, 75, married 54 years, ED started about 9 years ago. After viagra and cialis and pumping have found Trimix. Use 10 units injected with a partial erection. 31g-5/16" or 31g 1/2"needle. 10-1-30 :D :D :D Wife likes it too :D :D :D :D

Read this thread,

pay close attention to post #7 from Quester and my post #10.

Getting your primary care physician to be your enthusiastic advocate if probably the most important thing to do. That, and getting EVERYONE you talk to allied with you in your quest to become whole again. That worked a miracle for me.

Good luck with the bureaucracy. It is the people within it that makes it work.
