Thanks Violet! Really appreciate this info. I think it's probably a little bit of both - PN & Lyrica. I'm not sure if something like Viagra would help because I think it's more the sensation and the nerve. Wonder if those type of meds help sensation. I think they might just help blood flow.. Tha...

Does anybody out there have erectile dysfunction? I'm a 28 year old male and have had PN/PNE for a few years now. In the last year or so it seems to be harder to get an erection. My dysfunction is that it doesn't get as hard. In fact, it's quite flimsy most of the time now. I don't have any problems...

Thanks for the info guys & gals. Keep the info coming

If anybody else has experience with either of these docs or others who were great docs please let me know.

Thanks!

After spending a bunch of money to go down to Houston to see the "Ansell Team" I feel a bit let down. I gathered a lot of information but didn't feel like I had any good treatment options once I left. I live in a rural area and if I wanted to go see a pundendal PT I'd have to drive 3 hours...

Thanks for the info. How do you feel about having surgery with a doctor that possibly won't be doing them anymore? If there was a complication months or years down the road you can't go back...you'd have to go to another doc somewhere else that doesn't know your problems and didn't do you surgery. J...

NewMom2Be, How have you been since your surgery? Did it help you? Tfmcnellist, Thanks for the note. I hope he is still doing surgeries as well because I paid a lot of money out of pocket to go down and see him several months ago. I know he's one of the guys with the most PNE surgeries under his belt...

Dear PN'ers, I went a saw Dr. Ansell in Houston several months ago to decide if I need surgery or not. I'm trying to decide if I'm going to get surgery before this year is up because of insurance costs, etc. I just called his office and his surgery coordinator said he's not taking new patients for P...

I haven't been to a PT that specializes in PN yet. That's a good idea. I looked through the list of PT's on this site and I have found a few within an hour or two away. I guess that would be a reasonable starting point? How did they diagnose you? What tests did they do? I assume the PT's listed on t...

Also, I notice that it's worse in the morning. After lunch it doesn't seem to be a severe...Does this make any sense?

For a few months I didn't have any symptoms but then after riding my bike for the first time in a while the itch started flaring up again, especially while sitting at work. I haven't rode my bike in about a month and I'm still itching. I guess nerves take a while to calm down :-/ No success with my ...
