Anyone out there ever feel you may be treated a little different at work, since your surgery? I am a retail manager and we are required to keep a lot of balls bouncing at the same time, so whenever...
Hi Rookey, I had robotic on November3,2008 and I still suffer from ED. I am using meds daily, the pump 3 times a week and injections for intercourse. I didn't think I would be able to do the...
Hey everyone, Haven't posted for awhile, How's everyone doing? I could use some feedback about my ED meds. I switched from Viagara to Cialis because the Viagara was giving me flashes and a heck of a...

Fred, I sure hope so. I have not had an erection since DaVinci surgery on Nov 3rd. I know it's still early, but this is very frustrating. I am taking a quarter to half Cialis everyday and using the...
We'll all be thinking of you, take care. Hope to hear from you soon. Sam...
Congratulations! Sam...
My insurance covered my pump. I got mine right after the cath came out and by then I had met my out of pocket so it paid 100%. Did you call and ask them? It may have been submitted incorrectly. Sam...
Hi, I have heard the "best kind ofcancer to have" theory over and over and it feels like it mimimizes what we are going through. I find that many people don't know what to say so they grap the "best...
Mika, Sorry for your loss, our thoughts are with you. Sam...
Great news! Congratulations!...
James C. Generic Viagara? Didn't know it was out there. I will ask for it next time. If the pump creeps me out, you know the thought of those injections send me right over the edge. :) I'm new to...
Aus, Causes problems? Are you just refering to erectile issues, like having the opposite effect or other kinds of problems? Sam...
My doc told me to take a 25m of Viagara daily and then Cialis twice a week and to just skip the Viagara on the Cialis days. I too am a little concerned about the meds. I use the pump 3 times a week....

To be fair, the doc might have told me but I was so nervous about the PC itself, I was not all there mentally, anyway I did hear you say that the sex is better, now that's encouraging to hear. I'll...
I must have missed the part about dry orgasms!. I honestly had no idea that I would not shoot a load after this was over. Does the dry orgasm happen in all types of surgery ( I had Davinci) or is it...
Haven'thad that experience yet, but it gives me hope. I'll take any reaction at this point. Sam...
Just an idea that seemed to work for me. I wanted to use our hottub spa and couldn't because of the leakage issue, so I tried putting on a condom under my suit and it worked. I am not experiencing a...

I had DaVinci on Nov 3rd. and today was the first day that I tried the pump and a full dose of Cialis, with very disappointing results. I hate that pump, it's pretty uncomfortable. With Cialis and...
That catheter drove me crazy, and I was nervous when they removed it. But the nurse told me to take a deep breath and let it out while she pulled and it was uncomfortable but not painful. I read that...
I too am very concerned about ED, as I'm sure most men are. I had DaVinci on Nov 3rd. so it's a little too soon for me to tell whether I will have issues or not. I am going back to the Dr's in 2days...

I had DaVinci on Nov 3rd at the Center for Cancer Care in Goshen Indiana, and I'm glad I did. I tend to be somewhat impatient, but I have to admit that I am healing fast. No prostate surgery is going...
