Peyronies worsening. HELP!!!

[Dude9310]

I tried to post under the Treatment board, but it had no 'New Topic' option for me to post. At any rate, I was diagnosed with Peyronies mid summer. It's gotten much worse. I had a referral to a urologist submitted immediately, but I've now waited 5 months, and still no appointment. It is said the best time for treatment is in the early stages. That has passed. What began as a  tiny lump is now 3 large ones, is my penis is very misshapen and bends vey sharp to the right. 6 months ago I never even new of this condition, now it's all I think about. I'm in a deep depression, my 'girlfriend' just dumped me because of sexual dysfunction. I'm at times in such crisis I'm suicidal.

My question, does Peyronies continue to worsen throughout life, or is there ANY hope for me? Any input would be appreciated. I'm truly consumed by this. It's ruining my mental and emotional health. I feel useless as a man. Help!?!??

First, you've come to the right place for help.  Payronnies can stabilize but you're right it's good to get started w treatment ASAP.  Get started reading the survival guide.  You'll want to see a peyronies specialist as soon as you can.  Meanwhile you can get started w traction for example.  Read the guide and bring your questions here.  You can tackle this and it will get better!  https://www.peyroniesforum.net/index.php?action=search2

I'm 20 and in college, and depressed too. I'm just hoping the pain goes away man. Haven't had sex in a year. And I was already depressed before this happened... Just hang in there and start traction. The pain should stop once the healing is complete. And if you are still in pain, that means you should start traction asap because you have the best chance of fixing the curvature now.

Responding to the suicide part. Listen, you just got a disease. One of 1000s of diseases. Try and focus on the positives. You dont have Cancer. You can see , walk and talk. There are treatments out there that can get you at least back to having sex again. You just have to have the will to do the treatments. This involves focusing on the positives to keep a good attitude. This is going to be a long process. My sex life has changed but it hasn't ended. You're going to face many challenges in life. This is a terrible one but one where it's not hopeless. This is not about the shallow woman who dumped you. This is about you not letting that get you down

Bubba Dawg offered some wise words.  I echo them.

On the subject of "no new topic button".  You might have been on a private photo board.  There are only about 3 such child boards (subordinate and under another board) on the forum.  You have to be a member and have a minimum of 5 posts before you can access those boards.
