Thx I'll give it a shot...sorry about the pun....
no on constricting...that was never mentioned...
Question: I have been using trimix and getting about 80% there so I had the doc up the strength. I am upto about .8 ml again and still not a full monte for but 20 min or so, if that. Is anyone dosing...
I had robotic surgery and it is truly a technical marvel. I was out of the hospital in two days, and frankly per scarring, you can barely tell I even had surgery. Catheter was out after 8 days. I was...
First, let me clarify before my opinion to be respectful of all decisions, that each of us had to draw our own conclusions and take our own action. Hence each guy's/ couple's decision for them was...
Soulmate, Hilarious and so true. I am in the health benefits biz and I get crushed on the ED pills. I therefore order from overseas. Cost drops to 4$ per pill with a generic brand called Eregra -...
Foers Pharmacy is adamant about freezing trimix. Defrost takes less than 10 min. Every source says it lasts longer than the posted 1 1/2 months. If it is clear it is good. Freezing has been fine for...
On last post, sounds like there is a little confusion. The doctor calls in the RX to a compound pharmacy. Trimix has a relatively short shelf life and should be frozen. Can't speak for others, but I...
Most swap around betweeen cialis, viagra or levitra. I went overseas and got Eregra, which had far fewer side effects with excellent results, and costs about a third of the US brands. I believe...
Soulmate, Each scenario is different. The progression is the typical method of pills, then ved, then injections. I am only 4 months out from surgery, but eregra(viagra generic) and trimix bring the...
Hey ZaMan To find a pharmacy in VA, you can call, which is in Bethesda MD. If you live in DC suburb, they aren't far. Foer's Pharmacy 8218 Wisconsin Ave, Bethesda, MD 20814 Telephone: (301) 657-3500...
AS posted by others, I use trimix which is part of the 3 "p's" therapy. The needle thing is to each his own. There is very little pain per the injection. Initially you will get some aching but that...
I have an awesome GP and the only normal psa number he referred to was 1, and he insisted we check psa every year. When it spiked, he was all over it per testing with anti-biotics, then off, then...
Spot on that we each have to follow our own path with this....
An, You've come to the right place to get a lot of well informed answers. I had surgery 4 months ago and I had aggressive PC where my scores went from 1 to 4.3 to 5.6 in a year and change. Big key is...
I am at .35 ml trimix, but I also go with an ed generic called eregra 100mg. which provides very consistent results and I actually may start to reduce the dosage as I am only 4 months out of surgery...
A golfing buddy of mine had open and I had robotic. We compared notes on recovery, complications etc. I was back in the office in 2 1/2 weeks and on the golf course in 2 months. He returned to work...
It was a no brainer for surgery for me. But, as all of say on this forum, each of us has to call our own play. Obviously, age, gleason, biopsy results all play a part. I opted for surgery as...
A biopsy with an elevated positive result puts the PSA issue to rest. PSA simply gave me the heads up. When a gleason comes in at 8 following an elevating psa, then the rest is a bunch of bull....
yes on trying the "other" two as in cialis and levitra. generally uro's go with cialis as it has a 36 hour shelf life and they go with half doses twice a week. I had mild ed prior to pc as a result...
I started trimix at 3 mos and glad I did. First ed pills, then ved, then trimix....
I use .35 ml and have good results some times and partial on others. I recently tried viagra on the last pass with trimix and that did the trick and no duration issues. I was told that you can easily...
When you read an article like that, you have to chalk it up to idiots who have nothing better to do. I had aggressive PC and the biopsy confirmed it along with the post surgery pathology. The PSA...
Hi An, Per free particles. Mine was very positive at first psa at +25 with a psa of 4.6 approx. After antibiotics for next read and then when I went off antibiotics and psa shot up to 5+, free p's...
If your huz is getting a response from ed pills at 8 weeks, that is a great sign. Mine has been nominal at 4 mos. as I had one nerve bundle removed so jury will be out on that. I use trimix and it...
Hi An, Your husband's track per psa is similar to mine, and I ended up discovering prostate cancer. My PSA was 1 in 2008. Then it went to 4.3 in March 2009. I went on cipro for 6 weeks to rule out...
Craig, Welcome, and you've come to a great spot for info. Your stats match mine almost exactly. I'm 54. I had my annual physical in March of 2009. PSA had gone from 1.3 to 4.6. Went on an antibiotic...
Law suits are the reason. It's all cma....
AS is definitely an alternative, and as posted, scores are the key. At age 54, with a gleason 8 - aggressive, my decision was easy - out the puppy goes. Dean Ornish published a lot on passive...
In any community, whenever there is change, there is resistance. I have a tough time arguing against my decision for DaVinci, but it is equally important to remain respectful of each of our...
Robin, Take it easy. I was told walking only for at least a month. I played 72 holes of golf month 2. Trick is don't do too much as you may be surprised how good you feel after the catheter is out....
Ed, I am 3 months out of surgery. You couldn't have found a better place than this forum. I am 54 and gleasoned 8. In a vacuum your mind will draw it's own conclusions. Places like this forum will...
My biopsy gave me a shot of lidocaine or whatever with the biopsy device. It didn't hurt. No need to be knowed out imho as the procedure takes like 15 minutes tops....
I think James C is spot on with this one. I use what he referenced as the 3 "P"'s, and that's my story and I'm stickin to it. (Sorry...carried away!) The 3 "P"'s are pills, pump(ved) and pricks...
I use a VED for therapy only per blood flow. I've also used it prior to trimix. I do not use it for fun as the old dog has been with me for quite a while and I can't put a choke collar on him. Brand...
Good luck Towers! 1955 was a great year! Before you know it, this will be behind you. My kids are 26,23,20,20 and the best thing we did was keep them totally up to date. A wandering mind with out an...
Any where any time on getting a simple blood test. the normal testing sequence that I was told is every 3 months for the first year, every six onths for yesrs 2-4, and annually after that. Your...
No question on each person having a diff reaction. A friend of mine also tried Eregra who is hyper sensitive to the big 3 brands and he said the side effects were noticeably less too....
Mikee...you are rockin. Keep up the zeros and way to go. Now if you can just get rid of our whiteout conditions here in DC. Ridiculous....
When I interviewed surgeons before my surgery, a common theme they discussed was that a minimal protrusion beyond the margin was regarded as basically contained from a future prognosis point of view....
Patent law is a lot of nonsense as the generics all have variations to the US brands. This is pure protectionism as they make a fortune off these ed drugs. When you try generics you will know...
Per catheter out, your urethra lining will be irritated for 2-4 weeks. I did a cat walk across the ceiling when they took mine out. Burning or irritation sensation is normal and you will have some...
Before I forget, if you had surgery Nov 9 and haven't had your psa test yest, well to me that is an exercise in Chinese water torture. I had survery Nov 4 and I had my psa 30 days after surgery and...
AS posted before, as your bladder heals, there will be spots of blood. Not unusual at all. I had them going on for at least 3-weeks to a month and maybe longer....
Only post davinci pain was abdominal from have to try and get up etc. That really was only for maybe 5 days. Now removing the catheter was a different story. I don't think there was a full deflation...
Not a constipation thing, high fat foods before taking viagra, or frankly most any other ed will slow down the absorption process of the ed and hence take longer to work. If you are looking to get...
You have to avoid high fat foods before taking viagra or a will slow way down...
Way to go Neil! You'll probably feel like you've been hit by a truck, but only for a few days. Path report in a week or less, and hope you r contained and zero city!...
Yeah it's a USA thing. I have ordered a generic called Eregra, which is manufactured in India. It is also 100mg and costs about 4$ a pill as opposed to the hair raising prices here in the states....
At 54, DaVinci surgery was the only way to fly. I would have seriously entertained other options if I were young 70's in age. Seeds may be the way to fly, or cyber-knife radiation may also be an...
