stanley,
I have had several of my male cleints share with me that they had finally been able to maintain an erection and have 'the big O' which for most was the biggest R(release/relief0 they could have in weeks.
I think from what I have observed from the hundreds of patient I have had over time, that if you were sexually active before your illness changed your sex life, that over time, you will be able to adapt your activities and much of it will return. Some have shared that it takes a lot more foreplay before it can happen.. but we both smile and agree that the really good things in life are worth the waiting...
I try to explain that, like Robin Williams jokes about.."God only gave man enough blood to run one head at a time efficiently." Professionally(and personally) I think that when your life calms down and your body and your mind start feeling better, the big O factor will start to resolve itself.
Sometimes when your mind and body have been in the fight or flight mode for so long, it takes time for both to calm down and return to a more pre-crisis state. This is similar to the caveman days when they were so busy staying alive that they really didnt have the time and energy much for the simplier pleasures of life.just know that youre on your way back...
