Not something most guys want to talk about in public but as it is affecting my relationship I just wanted to touch base and ask if others are suffering the same loss of drive and on the rare occassion I feel I have the energy not enough happens physically to allow the act to happen.
I love my Wife dearly and I am sure she knows it but like most Guys love making is a very special intimate time and we have lost that. She still falls asleep in my arms but I feel I have let her down, crazy. |

Irbesartan, Bendroflumethiazide, Duluxatine, Omeprazole, Movicol and Senna. Not a lot really. The neuro consultant does not want to try some drugs until he is sure I do not have Parkinsons with Lewy Bodies.
Most likely due to my high blood pressure not being noticed until a few years ago. Thanks for your interest. |

Mucus is a natural source of l-dopa and as powerful as any drug. So I would think it unsafe to take without a dx of PD!

This depends on both partners being in approval of course, but there are some very fancy electric vibrators - including some with remote control, which can be interesting when you are in control of the remote and there are a half-dozen different vibrations that you can set off.
The objection is that it is mechanical, electrical; but it can still be very uniting to the couple when you have the power of technology to make your significant other climb up the curtains, howling at the moon. Spend $100 to $150 on a quality device and your neighbours will wonder what is happening when all the electronic devices in the neighborhood suddenly burn out from an electrical surge. Tell them it was from a solar flare |

And don't overlook the antique stores, Bob. I once found a 1950 Sears model with a 12 hp Briggs and Stratton engine in mint condition for $20! And there is still a lot to be said for the older hand cranked versions, as well.
