Will I ever have sex again?
Probably not.
I have metabolic syndrome. This means I have high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, abdominal obesity, high triglyceride level and low HDL cholesterol level. I take meds to control all but the obesity. Because of the group of medical problems and the meds I have ED (Erectile dysfunction). It does not respond to Viagra.
One of the recommenced things to do is to lose weight. But this is hard to do for someone with metabolic syndrome. While I have lost some weight in the last year, about 15 lbs, I need to lose a lot more, about 50 to 60 lbs.
Say I lose the weight what effect will it have on ED? From what I read, little help. Oh I will be less likely to have heart problems, the amount of meds needed will be reduced and I will live longer. However a longer life without sex, when you really want to have sex, is not appealing.
I went to the mall today to get my new eye glasses. I put on my new glasses and decided to walk around the mall for some exercise. It depressed me. I was looking at some of the women walking from store to store. Several nice looking women walking ahead of me with the their ass twitching. It was so appealing to me. Several women smiled at me. You know the type of smile that indicated more than just being nice.. But then I realized that even if one of them would be interested in me, I could not satisfy them or me. Well I could do good things for them orally, but most would want more than that, as would I. Damn damn damn!
I think my wife thinks of oral sex as foreplay. I think she gets frustrated if I cannot follow up with penetration. So we do nothing. I'm sure she is unhappy with my lack of performance too.
So what do I do? I have not a clue. All I know is that I am unhappy.

Yikes, that bites. Have you tried any of the other medications for ED? There are also levitra, and cialis. Perhaps one of those might work for you. I don't know a whole lot about those meds, but, seriously, ask your doctor.
And no, I'm not spamming you!
It seems that the main difference between the ED meds is length of time it remains able to work (the half-life). Can't find any studies or info in the chat rooms indicating if one doesn't work that another one will. It's too bad that my libido is high and my ability to physically respond is basely gone. I do get a bit of stiffness when "miss palm and her sisters" are in use but it not enough to be useful for other activities. I guess penial implants are my only hope. I wonder if that procedure is covered by Medicare?
Penetration is not to all the most important part of sex. I myself could easily live without ever being penetrated provided my lover still pleasured me in other ways. Any partner who cares about you will be willing to work around it. I know if my guy suddenly couldn't have intercourse I'd be fine with it. We would still pleasure one another. Relax a little; cut yourself a little slack. Concentrate on the other pleasures and pleasuring your partner. But never ever give up!!!

I'm sorry. :(
I think the pressure you are putting on yourself on TOP of the meds is fasr from helpful. What if you brought a vibrator into play and after the oral sex used that to penetrate her? Maybe the sexiness of it all will even inspire you.
I do feel for you. EH's meds have some to do with our sex life too and Viagra is dangerous to combine with his meds.
