Greetings-

I have posted a couple times as responses to other members, but I thought I should start a separate post on my progress, as I am determined to use my Restorex as recommended. The company claims I should see positive results in 12 weeks, so we shall see.

Peyronies for about 1 1/2 years, 40 degree dorsal curve. No E.D., no indentation.

Tried 10 Verapamil injections along with manual traction, curvature worsened during this timeframe.

Started Restorex usage May 4 2024. Min. 30 minutes, twice a day. (30 minutes consist of 15 min straight traction, 15 min. 90 degree counter flex.)

400 IU Vitamin E daily, and 10 mg Cialis every couple days

As of May 25 2024 (3 weeks of Restorex) No change in curvature, but erections are high quality.

May 2024 discontinued Verapamil, purchased Restorex device.

Unfortunately, no surprise regarding verapamil injections. Good luck with using restorex. Please keep us posted. Accounts of improvement are always welcome!

Thanks.
I will do my best to bring positive results to the group.

I won't get into my Verapamil experience much here, as I know this is a Traction related feed, but really feel disappointed and misled by my urologist.
He told me repeatedly that 2/3 of men will have their curvature improved with 6-12 injections. He wasn't really interested when I kept reporting no improvements.
In Canada, as you know, there is no coverage for the injections, and surprisingly to me, my extended healthcare plan also denied any coverage towards the injections. But now I think I know why!! They were smarter than me, and knew they were a waste of money!!

Anyway, onward and hopefully not so much upward we go

Cheers

I also had many sessions of verapamil with EMDA (electromotive drug delivery). My penis continued to get worse, they should stop selling ineffective treatments, also remove them from the forum.
32 years,injured at 25.
Slight curve, narrowing and retraction in flaccid and semi-erect.
Loss of sensitivity due to peyronie and circumcision  moderate erectile dysfunction, pain.
I improved the pelvic floor with kinesiology.
Frequent urination.

Fire guy: It's the usual. When things go south, that's when you see the real side of these doctors.

I am surprised you had extensive health coverage? What benefit is there if healthcare is free in Canada, if I may ask?  

Fire guy

Pfract-

It's "extended" benefits, provided by a private health insurance company. Most employers provide the coverage, and the plans all differ. Usually covers dental, eye glasses, hearing, physio, and drugs that the National Plan may not cover.
Ironically, they paid for the actual Verapamil drug, (which is cheap anyway), but wouldn't pay the urologist to inject it!

I might get some reimbursement for the a Restorex device, but I doubt it.

Have been using Restorex religiously for 1 month now.

The good-

Penis seems fuller, more girth, great erections.
Even the head seems fuller (surprised by that, considered the poor thing gets crushed for an hour a day lol)
Using the device has become easier as I have developed a good pattern/regime.

The bad-

No change in my 35-40 degree upwards curve.
Length is unchanged, as far as I can tell.

I was getting discouraged, as I hoped at the 1/3 mark of the recommended 12 week regime I would see even a tiny bit of curvature improvement. But after reading some posts on here I am confident that eventually there will be some positive results.

Now at the 6 week point of using a Restorex.
So, that is the halfway point of the prescribed 12 week program.
One thing I know for sure, it's going to take a lot longer than 12 weeks, which is fine by me if I'm improving.

The good news- over the last week I am starting to believe I have a slight reduction in curvature. Maybe from 40 degrees to 35 degrees upward curve.

This is after 6 weeks of religious usage, during which I was really not seeing any change.
I am happy with the device, as it makes me feel like I am in control of my treatment, not the useless Urologist who I turfed recently.

PS- I have been taking 10 mg of Cialis every couple days while using Restorex. Gives me frequent erections through the night and morning, and I believe has been very beneficial to this treatment regime. Lots of fresh oxygenated blood to the subject area, makes sense.
Really hoping the next 6 weeks brings some really tangible improvement.

Glad to hear you're starting to see some potential curve reduction. Try posting a picture if you can. I'd recommend uploading to google drive and then posting a link to the photo. The good thing about doing it that way is if you ever want to delete the photo from the post, you can just delete the photo from google drive and it will no longer load.

Thanks for that. Being older, I am unfortunately technologically handicapped.
But you are right, pictures tell the story. The harder the erection, the higher the degree of curvature, so sometimes I think I'm improving, but just wasn't as hard as the last time!
