wow so this sucks I wrote a good 900 or more words story about my peyronies and i got logged out and my message disappeared....  I'm going to write it again but a short version I guess.  Sucks, i really pour my soul into that message.

 So first off, I am a 30 year old male living in Japan and work out 3 days a week, great shape and mental health.  That was until I got peyronies.

 It all happened sometime last year.  I was with a girl who we had an intense amount of passion.  We were having sex about three times a day and one day she was on top and grinded me the wrong way and i head a pop in my dick.  It started to hurt the next day so I went to my Urologist who said nothing was wrong.  I started to feel a capsule size bump on the left part of my dick and a hard vein on the top of my shaft so i ended up going again.  He perscribed some anti inflammatory which helped the pain but after a couple days the bumps were still there.  I then went again and suggested maybe that i had peyronies disease, but yet again  he again said he didn't see anything wrong... It still continued so i ended up going maybe two more times before asking to see a specialist.  

 When i went to the specialist he told me I had peyronies disease and that if i take the medicine he gives me that I would eventually get better and the pain would reduce.  It did at first, but after i started having sex regularly again with my current gf the pain came back.

 I am so ashamed of this that i haven't told my gf about it yet, and when it hurts during sex i just ignored the pain.  Now it seems that i have a twisting in the shaft, the bump is a bit bigger and the vein on top disappeared but it feels....different then before.
I eventually told my gf that i "have an injury" and she just looked disappointed... and now during sex she will stop every once in a while and as k"does it hurt?".....  huge mood killer... although I know she's just being kind, man does it suck.

 I am messaging my penis a big, but am going to start more now, I am taking ibuprofen on top of the prescribed drugs, and taking hot cold showers as well.  I dunno what else to do.

 My penis is definitely a lot worse lately due to sex i would guess... The twisting to the left is now annoying me mentally, and the capsule like bump which is just below my penises head is also giving my penis head a slight curvature.  The pain in the base of my penis doesn't seem to go away.  But all in all i don't think i can tell my gf "no" when she asks for sex this weekend....

I also seem to be having some weird half erection problem where the base of my penis is erect but the top is not getting enough blood or something.  I get this in the mornings or for prolonged periods after sex.

Anyone with a similar story, solution, advice?  Anything could help, i seriously cannot stop thinking about it every day.  I still do not have a large curvature but just feeling my penis being so....different.. than it was before is freaking me out.  Should I message, take loads of vitamin E pills, stop sex and risk losing my partner........I am helpless and confused

 

NotWorking

This may not be a popular opinion, but have you thought about taking some medication to calm yourself down? I was really anxious at periods of my life and once it got so bad I started getting depressed, unmotivated and even suicidal. Prescribed medication helped me greatly, it normalizes chemicals in your brain. I am now more calm and more accepting of life in general. Best of luck, brother!
Straightening it out

idunno, very sorry to learn you're dealing with Peyronies Disease, but "welcome to the club."  Yours sounds like a fairly typical case, I'm afraid.

There is much to read on these forums, and I would suggest you familiarize yourself with the current "best practices" - the treatments that seem to have the most support (either anecdotal or research), those being: Pentox; VED; Traction; CoQ10; Acetyl L-Carnitine; the recently FDA approved injection Xiaflex; and numerous other supplements that some feel have helped them.  

Unfortunately, there is no "answer" - no cure, no magic pill or solution. Sometimes Peyronie's gets better on its own, something it gets worse, sometimes it stays the same. I'm afraid no one, not even a doctor can predict what yours will do. Each of our journeys involves trying to find a strategy that offers some improvement. Feel free to ask any specific questions about these strategies, and guys will be glad to offer their advice.

Best,
Nemo
53 yrs. old, multiple auto-immune conditions. First episode of Peyronies Disease in 2002; recurred again in 2013. Over the years I tried Topical Verapamil, Iontophoresis, all the supps, Cialis + Pentoxifylline. For past few years only Cialis. Still functional.

Thanks for your advice notwork...  I am trying meditation and to calm myself down with the stress of this, but I'm already taking so many pills (mostly supplements) I don't want to pile more on.

Thank you Nemo for the kind welcome and advice.  I am currently living in Japan and my medicine is all in a different language.  MY doctor has me on two pills, I will have to research what the English name is but i don't believe it is Pentox.  I also ordered CoQ10 and  Acetyl L-Carnitine online from amazon yesterday.  Also unfortunately for me, the Xiaflex and any form of injection for peyronies is not available in Japan so I have to rule that out.  However,  I do not have a huge bend yet, the most difficult point right now for me is the twisting and pain.

As for VED and Traction, I have been reading the forums and feel that maybe it would not be as applicable to me at this stage?  I think my main problem is the plaque, twisting, and the small bend near the head.  Would VED or Traction be able to help this or am i better off to rely on the medicines and slight message?

Thanks everyone for your help
