Larry went in for his (almost) six month check up and (almost) everything is
doing good. Dr. Miles is very happy. There has been no leakage whatsoever,
not even one drop. However, the erections have not come back, even with a
Viagra regimen. So, now hubby has a RX for Muse. Haven't filled it yet but
we'll give it a try this weekend. Does anyone have any experience with it?
Sure would appreciate some insight.

Received the results of Monday's PSA and it was <0.003. Yay!!! Larry will
have another PSA in six months and then not see the doc again for a year.

So, two out of three ain't bad. :o}

I am in much the same shape: dry with undetectable PSA but limp 9 mo after a
prostatechtomy. I have an appointment to see my uro and try penile
injections. This is a bit more direct than MUSE. I will report how it works.

Hello, Jean:

Congratulations to you and your husband for the continued good news.

My docs have told me that it might take upwards of a year to regain
erectile function. (I'm not quite 4 months post-LRP.) So I hope
you're not assuming that it's gone for good. What I've read about
MUSE is that both you and Larry might notice a short-lived burning
sensation that is harmless. Please let us know the results of your
experiment.

Will let you know when we try it. Had to order from the pharmacy and it
won't be available until Monday. Hoping it works.

Jean
