Erectile Dysfunction

[sugardaddy]

I started to have ED about 2 years ago. I'm was in my early 30's and a diabetic. My wife (bless her heart) still loves me eventhough I was not able to satisfy her like I used to. We haven't discussed the issue openly. I don't like to discuss these things (maybe that's typical with a old fashined man) with her or any of my friends because probably for all the typical reasons (fear mostly). We've tried pornography and aids with no success. She's always been generous orally but that doesn't seem to help. I've talked to my doctor about this and suspected that it was the diabetes medication (amaryl and actos+met) but we're not sure. I've tried Viagra and Cialis with no results other than flushed face and minor dizzyness. My doctor tells me that if both pills don't work then Levitra probably won't either since they're all based on the same idea. I've tried the pumps but it just feels stupid and further reduces my want to be touched. As of now I don't even want to be touched by her in fear of what it may lead to and the dissappointment she may have.

I've even thought that it was I don't find my wife sexually attractive anymore but I doubt it since even with the help of pornography doesn't bring about a full erection. I've even thought that a different partner would make a difference but luckily I stumbled onto this forum first so I never followed that idea through.

I haven't had intercourse with my wife for about 18 months and I'm afraid that it's going to affect our relationship. I plan to ask my doctor about injections and get a referral to see a urologist

I guess I wanted to say that from the other posts I've read in this forum I'm renewed with hope that all is not lost and that I don't have to stray away from my marriage to get help. I'm going to cross my fingers and hope that either the injections or seeing a speciallist will help.

Thank you!
