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.

I have not used PMP but I have read about this on various forums. You are not the only one who complains about the new sluices. Ever since they updated to this ''universal'' sluice model a lot of people are complaining on different online forums. Hopefully they listen to the critique.

Hi All,


I bought the PMP about a year ago because I was intrigued with the concept of prolonged stretching. I have about a 35 degree curve, had some pretty bad ED that I struggled with way before Peyronies. Don't think I ever had phases of Peyronnies, so I think it's just an injury from Finasteride and not "true peyronies".

Anyway, A year ago the PMP did wonders for my EQ. I used to not be able to get natural erections and after using the PMP for 6+ hours a day for 2 months straight, I now have natural erections. It's like Peyronies gave me a win.

But the latex sluices were of a somewhat weak material. People often complain about them and if they get a tiny hole in them, they are useless. I had to order new ones a couple months ago and its a totally different Latex. Way more durable but less suction/force and I think it takes away from the efficacy of the device. It used to be like a thin condom looking latex and now its a thick gray.

Anyone else observe this?

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?

I understand how tough it can be. I went through a rough patch during university where I felt really low. It was hard to cope, but I found some solace in smoking vapes. I remember the cherry-flavored ones Link removed by Admin No commercial links allowed
They were like a little escape. But I'm glad to say I'm in a better place now, and I'm thankful I made it through those tough times.

Also any pelvic issues can seem like prostate or penis related problems. Remember that getting older can slow down on our bodies healing process sometimes. Also worry and anxiety can do a lot of damage too.

Hi mikel7, my uncle thinks it's an impinged nerve. I am praying like crazy. My gp will not help me, was gonna go to er for this. I've been having some suicidal thoughts, I am not a threat for self harm. I will give you an update when it gets better!

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.

I'm also curious about the devices, I think combined with xiaflex is better.
I am in year 9 of the disease and my penis has already lost all elasticity and is shrinking, it makes me desperate

The usual starting dose for Cialis is 2.5mg daily. It can be increased after the initial break in period to see if you have any side effects.

Hi,

because I feel really obliged to this forum, I've uploaded another photo to the appropriate section...

I have received a couple of messages and I must first of all point out that I am not a fake account, I don't know how to prove it, you can come to see me for a beer in Czech Rep  ;D

It's quite a challenging operation, I feel very sorry for those who didn't have a good or expected result. Also the recovery is daunting. I was down for months myself but it turned out great in the end. You have to be persistent. 

function is normal, sensitivity is unchanged, I don't feel stitches...
