Did your doctor give you a plan for the erection return?
My doc gave me a detailed written plan to follow which was basically starting with low doze of Levitra then increasing as time went by. It pretty much followed the plan that Dr. Patrick Walsh also details in his Guide to Surviving Prostate Cancer.
Another good book to read is Saving Your Sex life by Dr. John Mulhond (Spelling) in NYC.
I was 54 when I had my surgery. I've been very happy at 13.4 months post surgery with everything. (Wife is happy also )
Just remember that everyone is different but being young is in your favor! It improves with time. At about 35 days post surgery I start getting some minor success.

Hey Larry,
It has been a while since I posted. Like you I had surgery May, 2009 at 56 years of age. I have been unable to have any type of erection. I tried viagara and cialis. I just about have given up on this. My doctor at John Hopkins also left his practice to join the FDA and we were asked to follow-up with our personal physician.
I have not given up and I remain thankful. My wife is supportive but, I see it differently.
I was wondering if I could take your plan to my GP?

Hey Jim,
Larry recommended Dr. Mulhall's book, "Saving Your Sex Life". Chapter 7, "Penile Rehabilitation and Preservation" lays out a plan. I've followed it and it seems to be working.0 -

mtguy,
I'm not sure if I gave you this url in the past; however, if you have not looked at it and you are starting penile rehab it may be of interest:
www.mskcc.org/mskcc/html/94910.cfm
Its three lectures by Dr. Mulhall that cover ED therapy. Lasts about 1.5 hours, but you can skip to the good parts. I've been told Dr. Mulhall is one of the countries experts in this field.
You may also want to get a copy of Dr. Mulhall's "Saving Your Sex Life, A guide for Men With Prostate Cancer".
I found both the video lectures and book to be helpful.
Best wishes and good luck.
