I am so scared for my Husband

[IluvmyHusband]

This is my first post as we see the Urologist tomorrow.  The ultrasound report states Peyronies Disease.  The symptoms match.  It is less than 24 hours before my husband's whole world is going to change and I don't know what to do.  I can't change this for him.  He is a wonderful husband, fantastic man and the absolute love of my life.  We have been married 24 years.  He is 45 years old and this will destroy him.  I have done the research after seeing the report.  He really doesn't know what is happening yet.

Can someone please help me understand what I need to say and do tomorrow.  I am petrified and I know how scared and hurt he is going to be.  What can I do to benefit him the best?  Any info will be so appreciated.  I am so glad to have found this site as I am sure we will need a lot of support.  

Thank you!

Ok. First thing is he needs, and will need your support. This disease is not the end of the world, in most cases, it is manageable.

The Urologist. Firstly, assuming a diagnosis of Peyronies is made, I would read all you can here. There is more accumulated knowledge about the condition than you will find anywhere. Your husband should have an ultrascan, the extent of the plaque needs to be determined. Don't be fobbed off with Vit E and "let's wait and see how it goes" if it is Peyronies, it needs treating ASAP. Spontaneous resolution of the disease is not unknown, but is very rare. Bear in mind that most Urologists  are not Peyronies experts. In fact, in some cases , their knowledge is perfunctory. It will help if you know what you're talking about when you go to the appointment.

Assuming his condition is not extreme, I would dismiss any suggestions of surgery, for now. It really is the last resort, if all else has failed.

First line of attack should be, Pentox, ALC, Citrulline Malate, Ubiquinol, low dose Cialis. You can read about all these here on the site.

If a diagnosis of Peyronies is made, it would be better if your husband joined us. Here he will find support and help in the fight against this.

If you need any more questions answered, just ask, somebody here will probably have an answer.

As stated it is manageable, as long as its not to extreme.
Normally your world turns upside down before you see doc, i just woke up one day and pretty much noticed a kink in it!! At least he is 45 i am 32 and a was very sexually active person, some guys get it in their 20s!
The main thing is dont talk to him like it must be devastating, that was the best thing about my gf, she doesn't talk as if its the end of the world for me etc.
I got surgery although could have lived with condition, as i said to doc who wants to walk when you could run!!

You asked, "What can I do to benefit him the best?".  I know that when you first find out about Peyronies Disease it can seem overwhelming but I would consider editing your post to be a little less fatal sounding.  

" is less than 24 hours before my husband's whole world is going to change and I don't know what to do."    "He really doesn't know what is happening yet." I am petrified and I know how scared and hurt he is going to be.  What can I do to benefit him the best?"  

It has helped me very considerably that my wife has never made a big thing out of the Peyronies Disease issues.
