Men...Sleep Apnea & Erections

Post by Dgrendahl » Thu Feb 21, 2008 3:27 pm

Well, first of all, as you can tell by my avatar, I am a fit, virile. male angel! Right? Before being placed on CPAP therapy, I used to have difficulties in the erection arena. Now...not! I came across an interesting article talking about this matter...

http://books.google.com/books?id=ZPApPO ... #PPA129,M1

and scroll down to page 128/129. Silly me, I just hadn't made the association. Your comments?

Anon on George Bush:

If you gave George Bush an enema, he could be buried in a matchbox.

Someone...please, do it!

Snort! Welcome to MY world...

Works on both sides of the bed, by the way.

Highly annoying side effect for me, I might add. Pity I didn't think about a sleep study BEFORE my BF and I broke up!

LOL,

Wow Den, and here I thought you were one of the REAL COWBOYS! Does this mean your children are all adopted?

They were born LONG before my sleep apnea got bad.....about 4 - 5 years ago.

My oldest turned 40, a couple of weeks ago and my youngest is in her late 20's. The Grandson turns 5 in a few weeks.

And, of course......I AM a REAL COWBOY......I just don't have a horse. (the upkeep is too costly for what little use a person gets out of them)

I have a vision that we will figure out an easy way to ensure that children develop wide, deep, healthy and attractive jaws and then obstructive sleep apnea becomes an obscure bit of history.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ycw4uaX ... re=related

Y'see, this is odd, because at first, I didn't think I HAD apnea... I just thought that it was the pain of rolling over onto my turgidity that was waking me up and making me so tired.

Seriously, the only times I've had problems with ED (I call him "Eddie", but we're close that way) were the result of SSRI anti-depressants. So far, nothing from the apnea.

Liam, way too mature to make a "hose" joke here.

@ Babs...

But I thought it was just my head bobbing in and out that
impressed you.... or maybe those "handle" ears.

Or maybe that enormous nose.

What do I know. It's not like I have experience in much
beyond gasping for air.

It's your pointy little head that turns me on, Nodzy.

Good for you for restraining yourself, Liam!

In the spirit of Liam's self-restraint, I guess I won't make any cracks about the extremely painful Radial Tunnel Syndrome I've been experiencing in my right arm all year concurrently with cpap therapy....

Poor Grendahl... Bet he's more than sorry he brought this up!
