Need some advice on treating ED

I'm near 70 years old and have been on some meds for some time that have taken the lead outta my pencil. I can't really take myself off those meds but need to find something that will treat the resultant ED. I have tried 20 mg. doses of Cialis but it only works some of the time. I dunno if Viagra would do any better and I really doubt it because I read that they all basically work the same.

Not a fun problem to have and wondering if any of you guys have some good advice from experience.

Thanks in advance..

Not being a married man, I don't have to look at the same centerfold every month. Is this helpful advice?

Viagra is not the same as Cialis. Cialis is a slow release intended to work for up to 36 hours (weekend fun) whereas Viagra is a strong one hit punch. If you take a 100mg Viagra, your dead grandfather will get hard by default.

Yeah, I know what you mean but that's really not the problem...it's more a physiological issue with the meds I have to take..

What rattlesnak said. Cialis is a lightweight. If it packed as much of a punch as Viagra for 24-36 hours your sinuses would be so stopped up you couldn't breath.

Dammit, where's the "eating popcorn" smiley?

If I make it to 70 I'll just be glad to be able to get from point A to point B under my own power.

My hat's off to you, sir.

Well, just cuz your body is 70 does not mean your mind is..or desires... You just look in the mirror and wonder what happened ???

There are five oral drugs approved by the FDA to treat erectile dysfunction: Cialis, Levitra, Staxyn, Stendra, and Viagra.

Here's a comparison chart of them. Check with your Dr for interaction between drugs.

Cialis requires stimulation of some sort. Viagra @100mg or even@50 all you need to do is look at it and it's as hard as chinese algebra. All of them have bad side effects. Cialis will give you a wicked back ache 3 days after taking it, Viagra is the worst, stuffed up sinus, headache, upset stomach. They have some room for improvement.

Have you had your doc check your testosterone level? If not, might be worth a try.

I'm giving myself that monthly Rx'd by my Doc. It does give you a week or so of intense Libido and helps some with my osteoporosis... That week or so I mentioned is the only time that Cialis will work for me...

The adverse effect of "low back ache/pain" of the ED medications are probably more of a functional ache/pain after the anatomical action of catching a hump.
You haven't used those muscles in a while, nor are they utilized during ADL's.

I'm in my 50's and haven't had ED yet, but as with us all we're not getting younger and it's probably a matter of time time we need a little boost. No biggie.

But it does remind me of one of my favorite jokes:


A son was arguing with his senior father one day about the possibility of moving to a home.
The elderly father was dead against it, but the son was persuasive. he talked the father into trying it for one weekend.

The older man was in the home for only a few hours, when a young good looking nurse started giving him as sponge back, and he because erect!
She jumped on and away she went.
Afterward the father called the son and told him what a great place this is, he loves it here, and that he's glad he tried it.
the son was relieved.

Later that evening the father was walking down the hall when he tripped over the gown he was wearing and fell onto all fours. Immediately a very large orderly named Jefferson pounced on the old man and had his way with him.

Afterward, he called his son and in tears said get me out of here, I hate it here, this place is horrible.
The son said hold on now dad, an hour ago you loved that place!

The father explained, you don't understand son:
I only get hard a couple times a year but I fall down all the time!


ba da bump.

100s cost about the same as 50s. 50 is PLENTY.
