No harvesting e-mail addresses for Spam;
No insults or flaming - be polite and respectful at all times and understand that there may be a variety of points of view, all of which may have some validity;
Opinions are OK, but please provide as much factual evidence as possible for any assertions that you are making
Failure to abide by these simple rules will result in the immediate and permanent suspension of your posting privileges.

Aloha,
Did the search for this subject, did not find anything. So, has anyone have experience with penile injections?
My doc is suggesting this approach.
Thanks,
Joe
Aloha Terry,
Yes, there were quite a few hits. I read through 2 pages and have learned very little. For most hits, only the words "penile injections" are hit upon. There is no other information. I was hoping for some explanation of the process or of the side affects.
Thanks,
Joe
Those hits from the search engine are mainly to Mentors' Stories. The idea is that, if you want to know their personal experiences, you mail them and ask them.
If you want general information, as opposed to personal experiences, Google penile injection - there are many detailed sites.
I had an injection during a Doppler ultrasound of the penile blood vessels. My erection did not go down after the test. I returned to the hospital where they gave me several more penile injections of another drug to try to get it to go down. I was in agony for a couple of hours during this process. Just as they were getting a surgical team together to solve the problem, it started to go down. After this experience, I decided to abandon my attempts to get an erection.
A friend of mine swears by injections + daily 5mg. cialis. Not all pharmacists up here feel competent to dispense tri-mix and will defer you to the ones that will. I, the squeamish type, and weekend warrior swear by the 20 mg Cialis. What works for me might not work for you. - p (Alaska, USA)
