Urologist & Viagra

[Guest guest]

I'll be out of touch for the next week. My wife is attending a medical

conference and I must tag along with my nine-year old daughter and seven-year

old granddaughter. We'll be " suffering " on the beach at Kiawah Island, S.C.,

while my wife is attending workshops and seminars.

Went to urologist today and he said he'd have a little " anxiety " about

performance if he were in as much pain as I am all the time. He said, " I'd

probably avoid intercourse with my wife, too, if I had to endure someone hitting

me with a sledge-hammer every time I had sex. " He's a very funny guy, but real

understanding of the plight of those with chronic pain from RS, etc. He also

said, " I suppose you probably know more about this disease than I do. " He did

go to the internet to check out sites on Reiter's Syndrome before he talked with

me this time. He was very helpful with my current problems. He said there are

many treatments to help with the problem of maintaining an erection while

encountering pain from RS, etc. There have been a lot of jokes on the internet

about Viagra, but he said, " Even with Viagra, pain can still make you loose an

erection. " Was hoping for an easy solution. Oh, well. Won't go into the many

other recommendations he made, too numerous for a short post. But, if any of

you guys out there are encountering similar difficulties I would encourage you

to discuss the matter quite frankly with your urologist. There is help. Your

wife/partner will appreciate your effort.
