Question:

I suspect that some reversal of atherosclerotic hardening may be possible, since we have some evidence of this happening. Whether it’s possible in cases of total blockage or very long term blockage is still an unknown.

Both I and LT Herrmann reversed ours completely by an even simpler change in diet and with food supplements. Diet alone won’t do it, Pritikin or not. Original Message <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Response:

is Viagra ever used as a long term (years possibly) treatment if it seems to be the only treatment that works?

It’s usually long term, such as for the rest of your life.  One of the most common causes of ED in middle age to older men is hardening of the arteries caused by the deposition of chloresterol.  Treatment for the underlying condition can slow the deposition but will not reverse previous damage.  Since you have elevated chloresterol and no other obvious cause this is likely to be the root of your problem.  (By the way, I think the potency you describe is excellent.)   Since you are still performing relatively well, a small dose of Viagra (25mg?) should be remarkably effective.

Throw out hormones and psychological. You probably have a vascular=20 problem.

I can’t believe you said that Alec, I agree.

Response:

a bit high cholesterol 270??

270 is too high unless you have abnormally high LDL.  It will lead to gradual clogging of the arteries, including those in both the heart and penis.  As bad as clogged arteries in the penis are, clogged arteries in the heart are even worse.  Get treatment now.

Mark, I just responded on the other thread that going down and coming back up is supposed to be normal.  Just my observation, but I think that you may be becoming over anxious over this, and that is contributing to your ED.  I wish your dr. had given you some Viagra to try because a small amount might make a big difference. Somewhere on the Web there is a site to provides exercises to enhance your performance.  One of them is to get an erection, let it go down, then get it back up again to prove to yourself you can do it.  Maybe someone can give us the URL.  I’ll look through my favorite places to see if I bookmarked it.

Quick update! Talk to your doctor, obviously. Since a Penile Doppler and Lipitor both need him in the picture, I didn’t bother to bring it up. I realized that just asking for Lipitor might get it for you. You need to discuss this. He may have alternatives in mind, but avoid Zocor – that stuff will leave you limp as a boiled noodle.

Re: Help!! (further update): – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Throw out hormones and psychological. You probably have a vascular problem. Get a penile doppler to confirm this and see whether it’s arterial blockage or venous leakage. The venous leakage is treatable via a cockring and the arterial blockage is a danger signal. Even if the rest of your body shows no blockages, you may have a case of vulnerable plaque. You can clear your arteries via Lipitor, L-Arginine, Lecithin and Chondroitin Sulphate. This will also reduce the vulnerable plaque. Original Message <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< (further update): Got the blood tests back. Normal testosterone, No thyroid or liver problems, a bit high cholesterol 270?? Urine showed no abnormailities He told me to lay off the beer for a couple of weeks and if there is still a problem we’ll discuss Viagra, when he gets back from vacation. (easy for him to say…hope he can’t get it up over vacation <kidding). This produces further questions from me for a the group. 1) If in the case that ED is chronic yet continues to go undiagnosed (no apparent reason), is Viagra ever used as a long term (years possibly) treatment if it seems to be the only treatment that works? Or is it only thought of as a short term treatment? 2) This ones graphic in nature  – put the kids to bed.  I apologize and hope not to offend anyone. Does this seem normal?  Love-making begins, kissing, maybe a little touching etc. Erection occurs (near 100% full).  (10- 15 minutes) Heavier foreplay begins – still erect. Oral sex — (me on her)….goes on for 10 -20 minutes, I get great pleasure (enjoy the activity) but erections seems to diminish substantially. With further stimulation on me by her (hands, possibly oral) my erection reoccurs (but probably more like 65-75% –enough for penetration. Intercourse begins…..(lasts for 5 – 10 minutes) erection comes back to 90-100% but only a minute or two  before ejaculation. On occasion I will get back to near fully erect prior to penetration. But this seems to not happen as often as it used to. My guess is I am thinking about it too much. Any opinions helpful….this is a very distressing time.
