Four years and a couple of days since surgery and sex gets a little bit closer.


To quickly recap, Viagra didn’t touch the sides; the pump had to go due to lymphoedema; Cialis caused awful acid reflux. So February my trial Muse worked and got the prescription; no Muse anywhere in the world due to manufacturing problems. Yesterday back to parading myself in front of the nurse, trial Caverject and it worked! Hurray! Got the prescription and then she told me some of her patients are having problems getting supplies. Talk about building me up and then letting me down.😒


Roll on Friday when I go to the pharmacy. Will they, won’t they?

Will be interested to know if you can get it, I was told by my local boots (on the south coast) that they wouldn’t have any until early 2024!! Not ideal!! Anyway, I asked my gp for alternatives and he prescribed Viridal Duo instead, picked it up today with no problems

Went to the chemist expecting to return empty-handed but instead had a pack of two Viridal Duo! Almost dumbfounded. What’s more, it’s on repeat prescription too. Stunned.

Rob,I have found Boots quite reliable, they tend to keep stocks at a central location for distribution.


 


Thanks Chris

Dermot , Rob, It is quite a while since I ordered my last lot of caverject, sounds like things have changed since then.


Thanks Chris

Fortunately the nurse wrote caverject and Viridal, “whatever is available” on the prescription request form!

Congratulations for hanging in there for more than 4 years. You give me courage.
