Message: <blockquote data-quote="paulfear85" data-source="post: 2073818" data-attributes="member: 124397"><p>My DSN has said better control may help which I've spent a year doing my Hba1c has  gone from 128 to 44 in the year and no improvement in any way with the ED. She said there's no finding for a urologist as it's non urgent and not medically necessary to see one.  If I was in my 50s 60s or 70s I'd probably be thinking well that's my lot between ageing and being diabetic. But I'm 33 lol. I was 27 when diagnosed so i think to be at this point already is quite severe. I've also read that severe ED can be a warning sign of heart disease but they haven't shown much concern when I've asked about this they just say don't worry your still young.  So which is it I'm old enough for my sex life to be over but not old enough to have a heart disease risk.  I used to have a really good relationship with my GPs but I feel let down by this particular situation. I can phone reception and ask for anything on prescription and I have it by the end of the day.  They gave me 30 viagra a month so if I wanted I could go every day, in pain I can ask reception for a months supply of tramadol and have it within hours but asking to get a specialists opinion on my situation is to big an ask. Although on a daily basis I'm not completely focused on my ED its not on my mind all the time but I am bipolar so it can really affect my depressive state and also my mania. Maybe my ship has just sailed or I try and save really hard to see one privately.</p></blockquote><p></p>
