Worthless

[Nick74]

I feel so worthless lately. It’s killing me inside that I can’t satisfy my partner sexually because of my ED. I know she has needs, and she’s been so patient and understanding, but deep down I can tell it’s hard for her too. I want nothing more than to make her happy and to feel close again, but my body just won’t cooperate.
It breaks my heart every single time I see the look in her eyes that mix of love and frustration that she tries to hide so I won’t feel worse. I know she still loves me, but it hurts knowing I can’t give her what she deserves right now.The waiting is torture. Every day I’m checking, hoping my insurance finally approves the treatment so I can start fixing this and feel like myself again.
Please, guys… keep me in your prayers. I really need them right now.

Thanks for the kind words, brother. I really appreciate it. Hearing that things are going great with your wife gives me a lot of hope it reminds me that there’s light at the end of this tunnel.As for my insurance, they told me it could take up to a month before I find out if I’m approved or not. Honestly, that waiting feels endless. Every day that passes I just want to move forward, fix this, and feel like myself again.
But I’m holding on to faith, one day at a time.

I can't pray for you and your partner, but I can guarantee that things will be awesome after you get an implant.

If you can't get insurance, try to get the money to do it yourself.
My wife came to bed in what seemed to be a playful mood last night.
I didn't want to force things, but we did hug and stuff.

This morning after we had our usual 7 minute sex, I asked her if she had wanted sex last night. She said no, only once a day, and she does that religiously.

If an almost 85-year-old woman responds like that, think what a younger woman could do.

Those words are a carbon copy of how I feel for my wife too. I feel ya brother.

Im also counting down the days to my first meeting with the Urologist Doctor in January. My insurance won't cover all of it, but I dont care. This is money well spent if it translates to happiness, joy, connection, and self confidence. How can you put a price on that. And you are still very young compared to most others here that have had it....meaning you will get more years out of it than most here. Sacrifice a vacation if you have to make up the cost somewhere. Turn it into a week long staycation instead, order takeout, stream movies and lock the doors, and enjoy a week long romp instead.

I know it feels dark, but I promise you.....WHEN you get your implant you are going to experience
something even your 18 year old self could never replicate.

Even on your best day.
When you look at your wife and she's satisfied beyond your wildest dream you'll understand what we implanted men
are talking about.

This technology is a game-changer.
Go as hard and as long as YOU want .
Anytime, anyplace.

No setbacks, no frustrations just hardcore unbridled sex.

So sorry about the insurance issues.
I have Blue Shield/Blue Cross and I was covered almost 100%

Hang in there.
If worse comes to worse-consider a malleable.

I believe they come in under 10k.
Good luck,

Best wishes.

I hear you brother. I'm sure many of us here could tell the same story.

I remember so vividly the day my wife and I sat on the end of the bed having such a serious, heart to heart discussion of how we go forward from here. I remember her saying "I always knew it couldn't last forever but I never thought it would end so soon". And then she asked if there was any permanent fix. Well, I had done plenty of research on that, an obsession for 20 years, so we discussed the medications I have used, what works, what doesn't, what side effects I had. I told her I read about shockwave therapy, and it might be worth a try. "But isn't there a permanent fix?" Well there is an implant. Bit like a boob job, except it inflates and deflates. That's about all I knew back then, and never expected her to accept something so radical. So I nearly fell off the bed when she said "well let's do that then".

That was the start of a journey of investigation and learning. When I discovered Frank Talk the whole thing fell into place.
It's a big life decision, not taken lightly, but as we agreed, I'm doing this 50% for me, 50% for her and 100% for us.

So we are now sitting here eagerly waiting for operation day with excited anticipation. Just the thought of what is to come is a huge boost to our relationship.

And we are also always mindful that we have a healing God. He puts trials and tribulations before us, and he tests our faith. We pray for healing and he answers yes, no or wait. So we wait on the Lord knowing that all good things come from Him in his timing, not ours.

Our prayers are with you, and for all who's relationships are tested by this disease, with faith and thanks for modern medicine.
