I never had this problem. I am 62. I've tryed viagra but it's not doing the trick. I've tryed 50mg. and 75mg. although it helps a little, I'm not the way I should be. help! I want to be me again!

no blood in my urine, but I still have numerous little stones that pass now and then. I also had a small section of one kidney removed to take out a large stone. I developed the kidney problem in vietnum and have had it ever since.

I told you earlier that up until I had the catheter taken out I had no sexual problems at all . could there be nerve damage from the catheter. I don't have anything else you mentioned and still had complete erections without any aid before the catheter was there.

Hi

Although nerves must be working normally for a man to get and keep an erection.

Nerve damage from a catheter is rare,

Nerves can be damaged by diabetes, multiple sclerosis, prostate surgery or damage to the spinal cord.

Hormonal changes is most important cause of ED in elderly age .

Hope this helps
