Am type 2 diabetic for over 25 yrs with hypertension too. Have enlarged prostate too. Blood sugar and diabetes are under control with oral drugs though my dose is almost max. Am suffering from erectile dysfunction. Is Viagra contra indicated in my case? Would appreciate replies.
I'm not a doctor nor have I had any medical training beyond First Aid.
As I understand it, Viagra is contra-indicated for hypertension. In addition I believe that Viagra is useless if you cannot get an erection to start with.
From what I've read in Dr Richard Bernstein's book, Diabetes Solution, this one of the problems that is helped by getting back to normal blood glucose values.
However, I notice that you also suffer from an enlarged prostate. These issues could be linked (in fact, probably are).
There are a few doctors on the forum but I would be surprised if any of them would discuss more than generalities as the forum isn't really able to advise on medical issues at this depth.
You do need to seek professional medical advice on this.
