Given your age (early 50's) and your
pre-existing conditions (hypertension and
diabetes mellitus), it seems likely that
erectile dysfunction (impotency) could be
due to local circulatory abnormalities
caused by atherosclerosis. You can try
using Viagra but only under a doctor’s
prescription and supervision. You
mustn’t use Viagra if you have been
diagnosed with a heart disorder. See
you GP for a consultation and to request
that s/he prescribe you an appropriate
medication.
