A quick hello and thanks..

[Milton]

I suppose as with everyone else who went through the first few weeks of panic, I'm a little lost right now. Oh and overwhelmed with horror stories if what is going to happen to my penis. I've done the usual search on google images and well, the future is a little scary.

But thanks for this forum guys. It's been my saviour for the last week.

My name is Milton, I'm 38. 6 months ago I found The lump. Then  4 weeks ago after a family scare with cancer I finally went to the doctor. Bullied into by my fiancé. Oh yeah, we're getting married next May. Anyway, I went from waiting for results from an ultrasound and thinking it could be cancer to getting told it could be Peyronies Disease.

My family doc saw me last Monday and spoke to me about the ultrasound. Good news she said. It's more than likely Peyronies. Well then that got me on a whole new journey of worry etc. I'm not the kind of guy to sit in and sit back and let something take over my life. But crap this is scary.

I've been referred to a urologist. I'm still waiting for that appointment. But hey, it's only been a week. A week too long. I want to get on this, so will read and take on lots of advice.

My lump is not 2. Funny how the one I was initially worried about was small. The second one, which is nearer the head and goes right through the shaft is a lot bigger.

I work out, don't smoke. Have been on a good diet for the lat few years so was at a loss re diet causing this. Although, I am hypo glycemic. So not sure if low sugar levels come into play. I'm looking forward to getting on some action. Is it wrong for me to be upbeat about this. It comes in waves. I spend most of my day thinking my misses will leave me as we won't be able to have sex or kids. And then when I see her she makes me feel so good and she's wicked supportive. I'm a lucky guy I guess.

Any newbies want to chat and share ideas, would be great. Any more experienced want to lend a guy some knowledge? Ps. I've heard that getting in to the right URo is crucial and that we need to get on Pentox ASAP. I'm here in Vancouver bc. Anyone know of a local specialist? Or across the border in Washington?

Thanks guys and again, thanks for the forum. This is soooo needed right now.

I went through the same thing.  When I found out I DIDN'T have cancer of the penis and that I DID have Peyronies Disease, I was relieved.  But as soon as I saw pictures of men with Peyronies Disease, I was devastated and scared to death.  Fast forward 5 years and I am fine...I still have Peyronies Disease, but I'm living my life pretty much the same as before Peyronies Disease.

So, hang in there...Peyronies Disease doesn't have to be the end of the world, or your sex life.  If you can get through the painful acute phase and not have a curvature so severe that you can't have intercourse, you will find that sex with a bent penis is still very enjoyable.  Best of luck to you and your fiance.

Hi Milton, I'm from Bellingham WA originally, Vancouver is a great place, I miss that environment.

Tokyo is humid as hell all year long.

If the disease is starting to change, as in the active phase has started, you may want to try to really relax and take things slow. Take care during sex and make sure your erections are always of quality. Do not rush sex or masturbation. Take your time and get your dick completely filled out. This will mimic (though not as well) the effects of a VED until you get one. VED is a good idea, the sooner the better but never over pump, ever. And read other forum guys' opinions. I'm sorry to hear about you having this, but having a good partner makes the difference. Good luck and welcome.
