He started me on Viagra but that did not help. He eventually referred me to the Andrology Clinic at the local hospital where they put me on Testosterone replacement.  Magic!  I felt happier, more energy, my BG reduced (slightly) and my wife started smiling too.  On my follow up I said that I was feeling much better than I had for years and that I really did not realise how miserable I had been.  The nurse said 'I bet you didn't realise how miserable you were probably making other people feel too', and how right he was.  I feel ten years younger, so very good luck with your treatment.  I hope you get as much benefit as me.  Oh, and in my mind, there is definitely a link between diabetes and low testosterone.BestHawkeye</blockquote>
