My rehab schedule got all convoluted. Pull cath, daily Cialis, then...we never got further than that due to backtracking on other issues.
I see my doc Tuesday for the 6 wk follow up. With bigger fish to fry the sex thing got lost in the shuffle so I don't know exactly what's cool to do and what's not. Almost 6 weeks post surgery and 11 days post cath. Feeling.rady to expand my horizons, I went ahead and took a Cialis this morning. (Good for what ails ya).
The only thing I can remember weeks back him telling me after the first cath pull is "OK to take Cialis but no more".
How long until "more" with your own recovery?
Thanks men.

My surgeon told me that I was good to go as long as there wasn't any pain or discomfort whenever I felt like it after suture removal. I think it was around week 3 that we tried the first time...just don't get too 'active' right away. Go for slow and easy the first time.

IT, My surgeon (actually, his PA), told me I'm good to go, at my six week visit. But I was really nervous (how shocking!), so I put it off. I finally decided to pull the trigger (n pun intended) on my own at about
8 weeks. Then about
a week or two later, my wife joined the fun. It was all good.
I think at your ne t visit the Dr will tell you to just have at it. But better here it from him, not me. LOL

28 months later and Johnny's still sleeping but ADT3 and 143 grays of RT in the interim probably not helpful either! 😥
