six months into peyronie’s

I first started developing symtoms last fall, bent but not broken. My GP doctor sent me to a urology clinic where a person who is not a doctor has given me 4 weekly sonar treatments. With another 4 treatments scheduled for next month. The technician takes a wand from a sonar machine directing sound waves at the affected area on my penis, somewhat like a woman getting a sonagram, petroleum jelly and all. Painless. Before the treatment my sex life was OK with out Viagra now Viagra is necessary and only marginally effective. I wonder if this is further degeneration from the disease, or I worry that the treatment may be making matters worse. I haven’t heard of anyone else getting this treatment.

  • Problems with Caverject - by GeorgeD - (Wed, Mar 26 2008)
    In 85 I ruptured three disks in my back. Was told 17% of serious back injuries create sexual problems due to pinched nerve damage. Sure as h***, I’ve had problems for yrs from it. [more..]

  • Verapamil injections - by Lyle Wammer - (Fri, Mar 14 2008)
    I want to strongly advise against verapamil injections. I was told by my health care practitioner that while a cure could not be guaranteed, there was no adverse risks involved. This turned out to be completely false. [more..]
  • No Where to Turn - by Wimpy - (Wed, Mar 05 2008)
    It is a fate as bad as death. If you are 60 years old, and still have a strong sex drive, there is nothing you can do. Even with Viagra, the erection is not good. [more..]
