Hello, I think you can only get them if you are Diabetic, like me , nothing to brag about lol, it might be worth asking your doctor, good to know for the other men on here, best of luck with your quest. The Internet is a place to get some but be very carefull , buy at the chemist and you know your getting real ones, at a price though unfortunately .

Hope you don't mind a woman replying.

I think it would be a really good idea to go and talk to your GP. I think there are some health risks involved, so it would make sense to try the safe route first.

Good luck!

Hi, Do go and speak with your gp as there are several conditions which allow viagra or similar to be prescribed on NHS script, or can be obtained on private script- not really sure how much that costs but at least that way you know what you are getting - wouldnt trust the internet. You also need to be sure it will mix with your RA drugs. Maybe if enough men speak up they will have to include RA along with diabetes, Parkinsons and MS which qualify especially as some of the drugs prescribe for RA mention it as a side effect. Think there's also a clause that allows gp's to prescribe if they feel it is an area which is causing a great deal of stress- and we all know what stress does to our joints! So go and just say it how it is, for doctors - its all in a days work!

Private scripts for Viagra can cost up to about £50 for 4 tablets.. Cherry had listed the normal qualifiers for NHS script. these are endorsed "SLS", patients who have had prostate removal also qualify.. certain heart conditions/ high blood pressure can preclude this drug being suitable for all patients.. But there are other options if you wish to message me privately as this can be a sensitive topic. I can discuss other medical/ prescribed options if you like as I think pride and dignity should be preserved.
