I went to the doctors with ED ... He discovered high blood pressure and pre-diabetic ... And explained ED was symptom.

I get 8 Viagra every time I asked works well girlfriend much happy .... Only thing is you need to plan .... I'm hoping with BP coming down and better BS control it will just start working properly :smile:

Same problem.
diabetes causes the viens to shrink so less blood flow to our important part..
i was a bit worried about mentioning it and left it months before having the courage to ask my diabetes nurse.
when i said ablut my problem she explained what happens because of diabetes and then told me to see the doc.
i get 4 viagra 100mg a month,which is the nhs limit.
I must say its perfect and works very well(or so i am told).
dont be worried as when i metioned it to nurse it was like asking whats the weather like!
very laid back and a very very common thing for us men,,
good luck

Loud, bawdy people and over muscled macho men out to prove they're tougher than everyone else or with bad attitudes, mobile phones being used whilst driving, unfair VAT and tax.
I went to my GP with ED well after being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and he immediately put me on Cialis as a prescribed effective tablet for my problem stating that ED is a well known problem in diabetics. I have had several different trials with other such drugs since then but am now back on Cialis which I find to be excellent. I can take one tablet every three days if I need to and always be ready or I can choose to wait until a mutually agreed occasion with my wife and take a tablet 3 hrs before. One thing I do find is that I think my blood pressure is raised on taking the ED tablets and I believe this sometimes causes red bIotches to appear under or over my lip area which I have to cover up with cover stick for days afterwards as I feel embarrassed about them. I hope this helps!

They do raise your blood pressure.

hi
i have type 1 and have had it 29 years and am now suffering from the complications.
i got erectile dysfunction about 3 years ago and have had the viagra and cyalis without any succes.i then had a course of the cavajet injections without success.i was sent to a erectile dysfunction specialist who offered me a penis implant that would help with the problem.you pump it up and away you go excuse the pun.when he applied for funding as it is a twelve grand operation i was told i dont live in the right postcode area so i am not allowed as funding isnt available in my area so i just need to keep putting the lottery on.if i was obese i would be aloud a gastric band.but if you are overweight you could go on a diet and save nhs money.as i cant getting anything done i just have to live with it which i think is unfair as i want to start a family.i think it is totally wrong....
