yes, explain to us please how to cope with our inability to get and maintain erections, our lack of libido and that we are still men even though. .. Not me personally I gave up male issues long ago. Is that a little clearer?

More than clear enough, I thought that is what you were talking about!

I had a high sex drive that tanked, I had my testosterone checked and it was really low. My Dr. Put me on testosterone, it helped but then he lowered, it has not been a miracle worker by any means! At least it gets hard but it's still numb!

basically decided I had enough sex in my younger days and she who must be obeyed has ms so no libido so I guess it works out well

It's good it works out. This MS is evil, most all of the Drs I have been to don't understand what this has taken away from. The Drs at one big clinic kept making excuses that it could be something else, they would check me and nope! So it's MS? It is probably something mimicking MS. I know that can happen but we ruled that out 3 times! Let's wait and see. Like the time I went in a hot tub and needed help out by three guys I was with at a work hardening program for workers comp., I was paralyzed from the waist down. After sitting in the cool March evening air, I regained some feeling in my legs and with the help of another patient staying at the motel, I got back to my room! The next morning my legs were still not back to normal!

I'm sorry you and your wife are dealing with this, take care!

it is designed that way. We met because of ms and enjoy the humor of the down moments together. If you could kick those people that put you in the hot tub. Dr's go not like to diagnose ms so much as it is incurable, and it is not evil, it just is, it just is.
