Erectile Dysfunction,ED,Impotence by any other name - My Experience

The Beatles are one of my favorite groups and anytime that I try to have sex, I mentally sing to my dick DONT LET ME DOWN. But over the last several years, my impotence has become worse. I hate this current trend of euphemistically naming health conditions by their sanitized initials, i.e. ED for impotence, AD for Alzheimer disease, or unhealthy foods...KFC for Kentucky Fried Chicken or Dunkin' for Dunkin Donuts. Stop trying to sanitize unhealthy conditions or food like they are less a disease or the food is healthier! WTF is the deal?

So, I'm Tony. Age 57. and have had impotence for several years now. I mean, severe impotence! like no erection when trying to masturbate. no hard on while sleeping, etc. This is mainly due to medical conditions. I have Atrial Fibrillation, I take anti depression medication (partly because I'm getting old and have IMPOTENCE),sleep apnea and a possible neurological anomaly (we have just started looking into that one.

Needless to say, this has been worrisome for my marriage. If you have read this far then you already know the problems...wife thinks you don't find her attractive anymore, fear of her getting horny and wanting some action, worries that I'm cheating or that she might cheat because she is always horny,etc

I had a kidney stone taken out recently and I cringed when the doctor said that we could resume sexual relation in about a week (my thought - 'well maybe YOU can!'). 

ok, first off, Viagra, Cialis and others don't work for me because my problems are caused by a medical condition. So what other alternatives have I used?

Well the first are penis sleeves.Now, they can work well but you still have to get hard before slipping them on.

Penis Sleeves come in a diverse variety of shapes, sizes and types. 

Most are sized realistically and are designed primarily to increase sexual pleasure for you and your partner if you find it difficult to stay hard during penetrative sex.It does a pretty good job at keeping you hard and enlarging your dick(win,win)!

There are cock rings but again, you have to be able to get hard first.

Cock Rings

These male enhancement toys work similarly to penis sleeves, in that they’re a tool worn to enhance sexual pleasure during intercourse. Essentially, cock rings are ring-shaped devices you wear around the base of the penis. 

Silicone cock rings are a good baseline model for beginners, as they’re usually stretchy and easy to put on and take off. Penis rings can also incorporate a variety of pleasure-enhancing devices, such as butt plugs, dildos and harnesses, and they’re available in a variety of sizes. 

Cock rings work by applying pressure to the area near the base of your penis. This slows the flow of blood out of the penis, which may help you to maintain an erection and stay hard for longer during sexual activity.

There are vibrators for men. They may work for some, may not work for others.

Male Vibrators

They can turn a penis sleeve into a “vibrating penis,” providing added stimulation for both partners if the vibes are powerful enough — and enhanced pleasure is, of course, an added benefit to just about any type of sexual aid.

I've use 2 items that seem to work reasonably well. I first use a cock pump to get hard and then a cock sleeve to keep it hard.

Penis pumps use a vacuum to draw blood into the penis. This can often help people achieve or maintain an erection.
