Recently Developed Ed, And Am In Between Hmos
Posted: 03-30-06 22:26pm

Hi

i am 30 years old and over the course of the last year or so my erections have been loosing some hardness. Not much however until about a week ago. About a week ago I developed several symptoms all at the same time – the extent of these other symptoms however is rather mild (all totally livable, except the ed):

ed
diarrhea
abdominal pain and soreness
some twinging/tingling/itching along the left side just below the head as well along the length, and some in my legs (especially the left leg).
Aching pain around the base on left (same feeling as else where)
swelling around base
allergies (nasal and sinus swelling).
Insomnia (which I have always had but it just got much worse).

For years have also noticed that I have a some what hard fleshy lump just below the head, embedded in the center of the shaft – it feels sort of like a fatty tumor, but its not very apparent, nor is it that large (a bit larger, or about the same size of a shellless peanut -- may simply be part of the normal structure)

it’s odd that all these things (except for the last one) occurred at once and it has me quite worried.

This also coincides with me going through the process of changing health care providers, and as such I am between doctors (these health care issues should be resolve in the next month or so).

There is a history of diabetes in my family, however my blood sugar is in the range of 85 to 105 and so it seems unlikely that it is the cause – though these symptoms do sound indicative of neuropathology.

My cholesterol hasn’t been checked for about a 6 month to a year, but last time it was checked it was in the high range of normal (about 196 – is there a specific type of cholesterol I should be looking for in my test results?)

i can get an erection but it is very weak and difficult to maintain.

Even my morning erections have been this way (when they have been present at all – the rate of them has severally dropped).

Ease of ejaculation remains the same.

I do on occasion have difficulty starting urination, as well as some odd sensations when urinating, but I have had these issues for many many years.

I am on:
25 milligrams of zoloft (very little, and I have been on much more than this before with none of these side effects)
an extremely low dose of armor thyroid (this may mean my thyroid condition has worsened)
200 milligrams of wellbutrin

i use rogaine to prevent thinning hair, I also use a solution that brings extra blood to the scalp (this solution has caused the veins in my face to enlarge, and when I take a shower I get red streaks down my forehead and cheeks as a result). I have used both these solutions however for many years.

I know this is quite a lot of information that could point to quite a lot of causes, but I was wondering if any of this rang any bells for any one.

This is not a condition I am prepared to live with at the moment and I really would like to get it taken care of.

Thank you very much for any assistance or advice you can offer me!
