[QUOTE=Idusixtyning;3727809]If you're fifty or over then you better get the colonoscopy done. Unless you want to be surprised with cancer in your colon that could have been prevented from progressing by an early colonoscopy. With advanced colon cancer, they have to surgically remove the cancerous portions and if unable to save your colon, then you'll be relegated to shitting into an ostomy bag attached to your abdomen. Stinky and messy to deal with. Not to mention catching the cancer in time before it metastasized.

If you don't want that finger in your ass check for your prostate, then at least get your PSA level checked every year or two.[/QUOTE]50+?? I got started way earlier than that; feel like I got fuked ;)

[QUOTE=HMobius;3729056]50+?? I got started way earlier than that; feel like I got fuked ;)[/QUOTE]Surprised your doctor had you get it done before 50. Maybe thought you were gay. LOL.

I feel like this is sometimes a support group so let me start off right with my update.

Hi, my name is Billy, and I have trouble with erections.

(Now you say, "Hi Billy")

Sorry a little humor before I get serious.

Recently had some blood work done as it's been difficult to get and maintain my erection.

My Vitamin D came back extremely low. 6. 3 - normal is above 30.

Testosterone levels also came back low. 199 - normal is above 270.

I'm now doing TRT gel applications daily and taking 50 K UI of Vitamin D weekly to start.

Both explain why little Bill has been having trouble crawling out of his his home when it is time to go to work. Also explains years of fatigue, mood swings, etc. I have a long journey ahead of me to get back to normal, thankfully I also have Vitamin V to allow some fun in the meantime.

Take care everyone.

Billy.

I'm just chiming in here on the advice of drmajikluv who offered up some suggestions on enhancers over the counter supplements. The two he suggested do work or did for me as well. Super hard diamond hard dick. It was lovely.

Felt very speedy sometimes especially at beginning and I didn't appreciate salivating. More like the salivating you get before vomiting. It's nauseous someyimes. I just reduced dosage and that seemed to help.

Anyways thanks.

Billy.[/QUOTE]Yes take the D to give her the D. vitamin D has many benefits. Personally I've been taking vitamin D along with arginine nitrate or more commonly known as NO3 or Nitrix Oxide which can be purchased at local Vitamin Shops. This is a very natural way to amplify the pump both in the gym and the bedroom. Note if you are taking a PDE-5 inhibitor for ED, than you should not take supplements with arginine nitrates. That's what it claims on the bottles. The NO3 and vitamin D both come in capsule, powder or pharmaceutical grades. The pharmaceutical grades are for hospital use only via IV. Side effects of NO3 for me are the same as Rx vitamin V, C and L. Ive tested all the PDE5 myself and would say the side effects of stuffy head, runny nose and Rock Hard Ererectuons via natural vitamin supplement from NO3 and vitamin D are similar to the V, C and L. Im NOT saying one is better than the other. Just saying that there are natural ways though herbs and vitamins that can achieve the same results. Good to test out both methods.

Addendum: I've been a doing a little Bruce Banner work in investigating and trying products on myself. Not to knock off Rx V, C or L but there are other methods to increasing Libido and blood flow. One way is to eat a ton of spinach, beets and watermelon. However it would take all day; it would take way too long to eat all that through Whole Foods, so a better way is to supplement with a pill. I tested two brands of NO3. One by MusclePharm called VasoSport and the other by CelluCore called NO3 Chrome. Cut to the chase: NO3 Chrome is crap. It doesn't work for me, but it might for you. TEHO. However MusclePharm VasoSport works well, in fact I got the same effect as taking Rx C, and L. VasoSport gives full hard pumps.

Side effects of MusclePharm Brand Of NO3 called VasoSport: stuffy head, stufffy nose and rock hard dick. Erections throughout the day for no reason.

Drawback: need to cycle the product and take consistently so it’s in your blood system.

Bottom line: Not all NO3 products are formulated the same. The formula needs the correct amount of Nitrix Oxide and or Arginine and Or Arginine Nitrate. I will be doing more Bruce Banner work soon after I finish this bottle.

Side note: you should not be taking any PDE-5 inhibitor as the bottle claims. I did a little research and found out High Hefner was also taking Nitrix Oxide, and you know that guy was boning twenty year old girls daily. So NO3 might be worth testing out. Peace out.

Sometimes is hard for me to get a hold of V,C or L.

So I'm currently taking this sups: Arimistane (50 mgs) Tongkat aly, Tribulus terrestris along with D,B complex and personally is doing Wonders in the Libido Department.

I tend to Abstain for 2-3 days before doing to the AMP, and watch my XVideos hours prior to Increase the Horniness.

It has helped me in my last AMP sessions.

When I was young and vibrant it didn't matter, but now as an officially certified "Old Fat Guy," I sometimes need all the help I can get (smile). So in addition to "vitamins," I've found that sexual abstention for two to five days (the longer the better) before an AMP visit, and viewing some stimulating porn videos soon before an AMP visit, can both be useful.

Any PC survivors still active? I was diagnosed over a year ago and will be starting treatment soon. I decided to keep it and go with radiation.

On the plus side I just got a 90 day supply of generic V. So I got that going for me, which is nice.

I wish you luck and as much comfort as they can provide.

Has anyone ever had any experience with Life Restore MD? I heard the commercial on the radio. They are in the Pan Am building close to where I work. They said they take medical insurance. Right now I'm only working part time so no insurance. Construction is slow. Going collect UI.

It caught my attention because a close friend of mine (mid-50's) had prostate cancer last year. Initially detected via a PSA test followed by a biopsy. Luckily, the cancer was caught at an early stage. He said the urologist implanted "seeds" in his prostate, followed by a few bouts of radiation therapy, He is ok now and cancer free. Lucky dude.

I'm puzzled as to why you haven't started treatment until one year after your diagnosis. Which stage are you at? Did the radiation therapy work? Hope you are ok now.

As for myself, my prostate is a bit enlarged but ok for now. Last year, I had a cancerous tumor removed from my urinary bladder. My initial symptom was peeing blood, which sent me running to the doctor. Scared the crap out of me when I first saw the blood. I had another urine test yesterday, and it still showed red blood cells in my urine. Going to see my urologist again next week. All this has made me stop mongering for awhile as I don't have the stomach for it right now.

I've been suffering with this for some time. Couple years ago it got so bad, this was before I understood what the problem was, my prostate choked my urethra and suddenly I couldn't urinate! Ended up in an ambulance to Queens West where a catheter was installed so I could pee again. Definitely one of my less amusing and more terrifying experiences in life. The urologist, after explaining the problem and showing me an ultrasound scan pic of my prostate / bladder area, prescribed a med. But I got one of the side effects, was having nightmares, so had to quit taking the medication. The other establishment medical community option for BPH is surgery. But there are just too many horror stories; things that can and do go wrong with surgical intervention in this condition, so I opted out. I did my own research online, bought a nutritional supplement which seems to have helped. I'm experimenting treating myself with an infra-sound device that seems to be helping as well. My condition has definitely improved but it's a slow road back to recovering complete prostate and bladder health because there were so many years in which the condition was developing. I had to stay on the damned urinary catheter for a couple of weeks after that ER incident, but finally I was able to pee normally again, no more catheter, thank goodness.

Blake, blood in urine, possible UTI, maybe having nothing to do with the cancer event. You might want to research cranberry juice, and / or cranberry supplements, said to be very good against UTIs, and supportive for the bladder in general. But I've never had one of those infections so I don't know from experience.

BTW, if a guy looks around online for info about enlarged prostate, often what will come up will be prostatitis. This can be confusing because prostatitis is a bacterial infection of the prostate gland, and benign prostatic hyperplasia is not an infection. Prostatitis is not BPH. I don't believe contemporary medical science has a firm handle on what causes this BPH. I've read all sorts of theories but nothing really explains precisely why the body allows this condition to develop. BHP isn't a microbe-generated disease, or even an autoimmune condition. Seems instead to be a problem of testosterone conversion and hormone imbalance, near as I can figure. Also, BPH isn't limited to older men. If a male dog lives long enough, it too has a tendency to come down with this frustrating condition!
