Hooray for Invicorp!

Thanks. I have read your posts on this thread. 

I find that when I look at my penis semi face down the 2 sides that you are supposed to inject are covered by the dorsal vein and another on the right side. 

How far up from the base do you inject?

Also my other question was how far do you inject the needle? I don't want to go too Far or not far enough.

Thanks

Today I went to the pharmacy and was told there was a shortage of the drug. I'm in North Lincs. Has anyone else had problems getting their Invicorp? 😱

Hello mate,

My Invicorp has been prescribed by my GP because I have had my prostate removed and cannot get an erection any other way.

I would, in your case, ask for medical advice as to its suitability, incase it makes things worse for you.

Okey dokey.

The Ivicorp should work within ten minutes. You should get a good erection, mine last for almost two hours. Give it the full dose and make sure you hit the correct area.  You'll only feel a small prick. (tee-hee)

Let's us know how you get on. 

 It says use the whole vial.. But is it OK to use slightly less in order to check for adverse reactions first?

Caverject ached so bad I never used it again. 

Thanks

I know this might sound silly but  I was taking the needles about to show  my andrologist and whilst I had left the at one of. My. Relatives houses they threw them all. In the bin. 

All The needles and bits  were still In the packs  not Opened or loose. Will they still be OK to use? 

I assume in the packs they are sterile.. I just don't want to get an infection.. Or should I aquire some more. 

The  fluid itself is fine I left that at home in the fridge. 

Also how long will the medication last I the fridge? I've had it 3 months now and haven't used it yet as pills Working OK atm. 

Thanks. 

😅 Very good.

I'm nearing d day for using this now.. It's sat In the fridge for 3cmonths.

Expiry is July 10th so I assume it's fine up until that point?

Had a couple more questions. 

Can I pre make the medicine all ready and then  take it out with me? Will it last a few hours outside the fridge?

This will allow me to   keep some spontaniety. 

If you are going away how do you store it? 

I'd like to take it away for a weekend...  Can I surround a vial in ice packs? 

How soon will I know if I've misfired? I'd like to take my normal tadalafil or sildenafil if I misfire, but don't want to do that then have it suddenly kick in. 

Thanks

I tried Invicorp for the first time yesterday (almost exactly 6 months since my op) so was interesting to read the varied experiences on this thread. I went into the hospital where I'd had my op to get briefed on it by the Urology nurse. The result was impressive I have to say - but maybe too good. Got back home and pretty much 3 hours after injection before things started to 'calm down'. Was getting worried that I might have had to be taking a trip to A&E. Although not quite qualifying for Priapism and no pain experienced I'm wondering whether a 3-hour boner will do more harm than good? I wanted to try the injections primarily for rehab rather than sex (am single currently) having read about the blood oxygenation issue vs. VED pump - although after 6 months I wonder whether it's going to make a lot of difference. That said I have been taking Tadalifil off an on since the op (it doesn't make anything happen but I believe the theory is that PED5 inhibitors can improve blood flow to the area even without an erection) and have been using the pump more or less daily since about 8 weeks post op. Anyway have asked the question of the nurse but have often found useful stuff on this forum.

As mentioned I am 6 months post prostatectomy. It was described as an 'excellent' bilateral nerve spare. To date I have not managed any natural response 'down there' to sexual stimulation. I did seem to get a few nocturnal 'semis' every now and then but not recently. I use the pump for rehab and obtain a pretty full erection (as it's for rehab not using the ring just bringing it up and down in the pump).

Any insights / thoughts / experiences appreciated. 

Thanks

Rich Fisher,

Yes, as francij1 has said, always keep some Sudafed capsules handy after using any of the injections (e.g. Alprostadil or Invicorp).  It is claimed to be an antidote.  I've never had to use Sudafed, so can't confirm whether it works or not.

I have nasal congestion and regularly use Sudafed spray. I have ED and regularly use Invicorp. I haven't found that Sudafed effects my erections. I can breathe easily whilst having penetrative sex.

Did you manage to get the Invicorp?  I'm having problems getting hold of it.  😪

The urologist wants me to try the Viridal again, seems to think I'm injecting in the wrong place. However, I had to cancel the appointment and six weeks later I've got a telephone appointment!

Thank you.   Fingers crossed it doesn't take too long.  👍

😂

I might be sounding like a broken record- but finally this month I will be starting Invicorp.

I had Botox for the pelvic floor  muscles, which reduced pain but has  made it even harder to acheive an erection, plus now the emotional stress of it is creating a  mental block.

I can get turned on, so arousal isnt an issue its  getting it hard enough and moreso keeping it thats the issue.

I can still get good erections by myself- which is demoralising.

Is anyone aware of any reasons why it may not work because of my muscle related issues that cause the ED?

Also when finding the right spot.. which for me in the biggest hurdle...   not too far from the base in the right or left side at 10 or 2 right? How far in is best to insert?

Again, thank you for welcoming me here despite not having the more profound ED or cause of ED as the rest of the guys here.

ED forums or pages simply do not have  any information about Invicorp, its all Trimix Trimix Trimix, which you cant get here in the Uk and  I assume would only cause the pain I had with Viridal Duo anyway.

Thanks

I've injected the same areas as you and put the half the needle length in. You need to massage the injection area. If you hit the right spot you hardly feel any resistance to the needle. Practise makes perfect. The erections are about 80% as good as my old natural ones. They are good enough for penetrative sex and last about 90 mins to two hours.

Question I meant to ask before. If you misfire is it obvious fairly soon, ie if I misfire and it doesnt work can I take a pill afterwards? Or could it be dangerous if it suddenly kicks in? Kind of askward to not quite know 100% if  your penis is going to be ready or not... whereas with a pill you know for sure youve taken it... they just arent as reliable for getting past stress and anxeity barriers.

Thanks.

Never take both together.

Sounds like you might be better with a pill and a good cock ring, I find they help with anxiety deflation (and inflation!)

Hi Jerry.

Invicorp has never caused me any pain.  I cannot recall anyone complaining of it causing pain, but some have complained of having pain using Caverject and other injectable drugs.

I completely fumbled it.  Due to anxiety about the injection I couldnt even get a  chub on, couldnt really find the spot as it started retracting a bit, then couldnt keep my hand still and was worried about causing harm when inserting the needle if I was shaking. 😑

Ended up taking Sildenafil instead.

How do you guys stay calm during this process 😶

Don't give up.

Next time, hold the end of your penis with one hand, rest your injecting hand/wrist on your thigh to steady it and push the needle in. 

I would always take a sharp intake of breath just as I injected. My wife always commented how I seemed to lift off the bed.

It's weird but give it another go. 

Good luck. 

Kev.
