Non-nerve sparing ED update

I didn't have the nerves spared in my surgery. My doctor recommended that before hand and I agreed so I knew what I was getting into ahead of time.

I started on injections this past summer. I couldn't tolerate the trimix, so I'm on bimix. I haven't used it nearly as much as I expected, it still aches some and I get cramps after an orgasm (in deep around where the prostate would have been) when I use it so it hasn't been entirely sucessful. Around Christmas I started feeling vague signs of life and in the last couple of weeks I've started to have success with Viagra. Nothing like the old days, but it beats the hell out of sticking myself with a needle and I'm getting about the same result.

One bonus is my wife has had a renewed "enthusiasm" for sex that I haven't seen since before we had kids. For Valentines Day she got us a box of goodies from a sex shop using one of those online coupon deals. This is an area we've never explored and we're like a couple of teenagers with the stuff.

Today we had an impromtu romp at lunch time and I didn't have time to take a viagra ahead of time, yet I was still able to get enough of an erection for sex. With the nerves gone, this is something I just never expected. Don't want to sound like I'm bragging, but you guys are the only ones I can talk to about this. It's doing wonders for my depression as well.

Congratulations, this should give home to other guys that underwent non-nerve sparing ops.

Keep up the experiments, least its fun trying.

They don't mention the 2" ahead of time, do they.

I am very pleased with your success snowbound - but I am confused - when I started my research prior to my PCa treatment I was informed that if there are no nerves sparing - the meds would not work (cialis, viagra) since there are no nerves for them to stimulate - and that the only recourse would be bimix or trimix -
-very pleased you are getting reactions with viagra
-keep up the hard work

I found this interesting ED site - 15% success rate if non-nerve sparing RP.

Congratulations on the good news. While making my DECISION, I read "A Primer On Prostate Cancer". In it the authors mentioned that 20% of men will achieve erections even with non nerve sparing surgery, 50& with one nerve spared, and 70% with both nerve's spared. I started night time ed meds a week ago, and twice I've awakened with a larger than natural penis. It isn't hard, but it certainly is bigger than normal in both length and girth. These two mornings it was bigger than it's normal flaccid self before surgery. I sure hope this is a good sign even though it is way to early to tell or get worried. I think it is time I suck it up with my unused VED this morning.

Thanks for the inspiration

Desertrat1,

That's what I started seeing this fall and early winter. At the flacid state it would sometimes be larger than normal. There was no sensation that it was erection related, but gradually that's changed.
