I know how you feel. Im almost 34 and I've had 2 girlfriends break up with me because I couldn't get hard. It's put me in a extremely deep depression and put crazy weird thoughts in my head. You are 55 I understand your pain my friend that's why I wanna find others that live near me so I can chat with them better. Even made me think some homosexual thoughts. Message me if wann3 chat lol.

Hope you are doing alright.  Any progress on setting the surgery up? Happy Holidays and hope the New Year is better for you.

You are definitely planning to schedule it?  I am sure it is freaking you out as cutting into the skull/brain is frightening.  Is there no other way to rid yourself of the tumor?  If not, I'd just get it over with.  But I know it's a bit deal to take off work, pay for surgery, go through recovery.  So, maybe in the new year?

I have an appointment with my doctor on Friday to get a new neurologist. And then I can hopefully schedule a surgery date. You are right it is quite frightening but not nearly as frightening as living with ed and going through another break up. I can't possibly continue to live like this. Losing my mind.
It helps to talk to someone about it and I appreciate you taking time out of your day to respond to me. Really helps.

I was hoping you'd say it was all resolved.  Sorry to hear it is still a problem.  This tumor sounds like a huge intrusion on your life.  Surgery is always frightening.  Is the tumor easily operable?  I'd go ahead and try to schedule it so you can move on with your life.  And I wouldn't try to get back any woman that didn't hang with me during a medical condition interfering with your sex life.  While it is her choice, it also means she isn't in it for the rough times. But for the next woman you want to have a relationship with, getting this resolved will improve that.  When is the surgery going to happen? Do you have help after the procedure?

My life sucks.    I need to have this tumor removed
20620809 tn?1504362969
Hey man, very sorry to hear that.  Sorry she didn't stick with you while you work this out.  So, you know what the issue is.  What is the approach the approach the doctors are taking for the tumor on your pituitary gland? Are they going to remove it? Ya, issues with the pituitary gland can cause all sorts of things.  Hormones are heavily involved there and that can affect erection, mood, etc.  So, tell us what the doctor is planning for that tumor?
