The Viagra Chronicles

Not that I have anything against Viagra. On the contrary, after my husband and I realized Viagra was our only way to keep it up, I learned to love the little blue magic pill. But, I know that for some people Viagra is not the only solution, and for others (for example, those of you who take nitris), Viagra may not be even an option.

So, for those of you who can’t take Viagra, and for those who want to try something else for some time, I will now write about a few natural alternatives for Viagra (or Cialis, or Levitra). There are naturopathic ways to treat Erectyle Disfunction, and most of them work on enhancing the blood flow. Please always consult your doctor if you have any special medical issue.

Erectyle Disfunction – The Naturopathic Way

Food first. Check your diet, make sure you have a balanced diet and that you eat enough and not too much from each kind of food. Try to avoid sugar, dairy products, highly processed foods, fried foods, junk foods, alcohol, and caffeine. Even if it’s really hard to do, it is better to try this for 10 days, and see if the situation is better.
Some food supplements that are known to help against ED, are:

• Asian ginseng (Panax ginseng), traditionally used to treat impotence
• Damiana (Turnera diffusa), used to treat impotence and a variety of other sexual disorders; also acts as an aphrodisiac, a substance that increases sexual arousal
• Epimedium, also known as Horny Goat’s Weed or Fairy Wings, is believed to be a natural aphrodisiac that acts chemically in a manner like that of the prescription drug sildenafil citrate (Viagara®)
• Ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba), reputed to have the ability to increase the flow of blood through the arteries, the process by which an erection is produced
• Muira puama (Ptychopetalum olacoides), recommended for increasing sexual desire and performance

Other supplements that may be helpful are vitamin C, vitamin E, selenium and zinc, inositol (tends to lower blood cholesterol levels), and bioflavonoids (compounds with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties).

Always try to make your body happy and exercise. Run on the beach, take a yoga class, go to the gym. Whatever you do,listen to your body. It tells you when it had enough.

Good luck, and happy love.

It seems that healthy blood circulation is the key for good life. And since impotence pills (ED pills) are improving blood circulation, they have some useful side effects. I have already mentioned in my last post that Viagra might help women get pregnant (and now that I think about it, i need to send the link to a friend of mine!). I read other things too, how Viagra helps against Jet Lag, and now I read that Cialis (or other ED pills, such as Viagra and Levitra) can help people with muscle dystrophy.

It really got me thinking, should people with no impotence problems should really use impotence pills to fix other problems they might have? After all, those ED pills still have some bad side effects of their own, and what if using them will fix one problem – but will cause a new one?

How can you trust Viagra? Or, for that matter, any medicament? How can you trust science?

I don’t have the answers, I’m just a young worried Viagra Wife…I’m writing here to raise those questions, not to answer them. For me, the answer is common sense. When I feel (or when my husband feels) it’s better not to use the pill for a week, we take a break. I must say it only happened once, after more than a year we’ve been using the pill. Louis never had any bad side effect happening to him. For us, Viagra (and also Cialis, he used it for some time) is a perfectly safe medicament.

But still, it’s a medicament.

I just thought we all should keep that in mind.

Love,

Ella.

It seems like doctors have no idea what they are doing, or what kind of medicaments they’re creating. It appears now that Viagra has at least one more important use, and not for the men. I couldn’t believe it’s true, but this website is quite reliable as far as I know and this piece of news reached other sites too.

Anyway, it’s not science fiction, only science. And science, as you know, is all about trial and error. This time it was trial and success, and the explanation is about the blood stream in the body.

Viagra Alternatives? try Chinese medicine. Louis wants to but hasn’t yet, but i know needles can do a lot, especially when it’s about blood and the way it circles your body. I’m sure about it cos when (a few years back, before I got pregnant) I had a heavy menstruation, i went to an Acupuncturist and after one treatment it was very different.

More about pregnancy and Viagra can be found here, an article on the bbc website back from 2005. Levitra and Cialis are also mentioned as possible treatments, doctors just haven’t tried it yet.

Louis started to use the daily Cialis now. It’s all that spontaneity that he misses when using Viagra. We were considering that daily Cialis for some time now, one thing we didn’t like was the idea of taking a daily pill. But it is a very small dose (2.5mg) and it seems to work so far. Louis has an erection whenever he wants, or whenever I want, or whatever. It was important for us also because of our baby girl, we couldn’t really decide anymore when will we have sex. Things aren’t so sure once you have kids, and by taking the pill daily we made sure it didn’t matter much.

This coming weekend we are going to Egypt for a vacation: I’m so excited, I’ve never been to Egypt before. All this desert, exotic food, people…Our daughter stays with my parents, so we could also have sex whenever we want. Sounds good, right? I told Louis maybe we buy the normal Cialis pack for that weekend, because it lasts up to 36 hours. But I’m not sure if it makes much sense now that he already uses the daily pill. We’ll see.

Love,

Ella

First off, some updates regarding my affair…it’s over. I can’t lie to my husband, I don’t want to become the people I hate most, and I have no intention of living double life. It’s exhausting, above all.

So I’m back with Louis now, and I say ‘back’ coz it really feels like I’ve been away for some time now. We hardly had sex, he didn’t even try coz I was so distanced, and went out quite a lot. i actually realized that once I saw his pack of Viagra pills, still not empty after almost a month (he buys the big boxes, those with 40 pills inside, you get good discounts on them).

I came to Louis and told him ‘why don’t you come early tonight, we can be together’. Louis was happy, he even said: ‘oh, she’s back..’. I felt embarrassed then. I thought of Adam and became to horny to control myself. But I waited for him. I waited for my husband. until then, I had some hours to kill, I took a long bath and told myself this is how it should be. I’m married and happy. Before I took that bath I put our kid at my parents – told them Louis bought tickets for a movie. They were happy enough to see her, so that was fine.

Louis came and I was pretty aggressive, pushing him to the bed and taking both of our cloths off. He told me he didn’t take it yet and I said ‘lets try without it’. He didn’t want to! he said that we haven’t had sex for a week now and he wants to do it the right way.

Can you believe it? He wouldn’t even try. I think he gave up his own body, now totally relying on the pill to do the work for him (half of the work, that is, coz you must be horny for Viagra to work – but that part is on me!).

Anyways, I’m so upset now I hate Viagra, I hate Louis, and I hate myself for killing my affair too early. I’m horny, dammit.

We went a few guys after work to watch Avatar in the cinema. Eddie made a joke of the director being hooked on Viagra when he planned this movie (all the creatures there are blue).

I have a confession to make. Shit I hate this. I don’t write so often and then when I do is only to bring my stupid confession. Probably you’re looking for some Viagra information or whatever, and here’s me with my silly little life…Well anyway, it’s Adam. Remember this guy from my last post, the Viagra gay? So two days after our flirt on the sofa, I come home after work to find Louis taking two Advils. Louis is not the druggie guy, he almost never take medication unless it’s really bad. He told me he had a really bad headache, and that it’s probably a side effect from the use of Viagra for two long.

We went to sleep early that day, Louis in pain and I’m thinking about Adam. Next morning I give him a call. He’s happy to hear my voice, I ask him (‘a weird question I have for you’) if he ever had this headache as a side effect of Viagra, he says sure, it may happen sometimes. I called Louis and broke him the news, that it doesn’t mean it will happen now all the time. It comes and goes, he can continue use the Viagra safely. I think he knew that already, he wasn’t at all interested to hear more about it. For sure he wasn’t interested to hear about my new gay friend.

I didn’t tell him but Adam invited me to this party his friend had in a bar that weekend. I went there alone. I don’t know why but I felt it was for the best. Told Eddie it was someone from work, and that he should go out as well, some quality time without each other.

No, I won’t tell you everything here. Just that he was gorgeous, even more than I remembered. He bought me drinks and treated me like a princess (or a prince?), and we took some drugs together, and we stayed in the dark back room, where we kissed for hours, and made love. It was love, I’m sure. And I’m still in it, I’m in love with my gay friend.

I asked him afterwards if he have sex with women often and he smiled and said ‘no’. I didn’t want to ask more than that, it’s not my business yet. He didn’t mention Louis at all. I asked him at the end, still in this dark room with lots of kissing and licking sounds around us, I asked Adam if he took Viagra that night. He said he didn’t need to, he was hard enough to continue all night with me if I could.

I still have his smell all over my face and my body, his saliva all over me, I’m still there.

This week was hell. I need to delete my sms from Adam but I cannot, I want to read them again and again. It can cost me, I know.

what should I do?? Louis is so good to me, but I can’t and won’t stop my heart for no one.

Love,

Ella the confused Viagra Wife

I haven’t been blogging for sometime now, I guess I got a bit bored of that. My life as the Viagra Wife has continued as usual. Meaning: he takes a pill (he’s still experimenting with different pills and brands), we have sex. I think that got me a bit bored too. I was never really into pills, even when I suffer from headaches it’s very rare that I pop an Advil into my throat.

So last weekend I was working really hard at the restaurant (sick waitress, a bartender with a massive hangover – hell). I hardly saw home, not to mention my family. No, no sex either. Anyways, some friends of mine came to the restaurant one evening to cheer me up, they had dinner and drank not too little (2 champagne bottles) and took me to the back yard for a puff. There were 5 of them: 2 guys and a girl, and another 2 guys which I never saw before. Now one of them, Adam, was quite a guy. I mean, he was beautiful. I don’t usually cheat on my husband but I do enjoy flirting. And Adam, he was very flirty.

Until I finished my shift there were only 3 left at the table: Adam and 2 more guys that I know and love, but at the moment I wanted them to talk less and let me focus on my babe-of-the-night. Did I mention how gorgeous he was? Cute smile, chocolate skin, blue eyes. Really a fairy-tale prince.

We all went to this one guys’ flat to get something to smoke, and while there somebody switched on the tv and that was it. We stayed there. Adam started to talk to me how does it feel to be so young and already with a family – I usually hate it when people talk to my like this, like there is one way to live and I’m living a weird kind of life just because it’s not like theirs – but remember, this guy was stunning. I started to talk about Louis, about being loyal (I kept hoping for him to kiss me, so I spoke like we are having an open relationship, kind of). Before I knew it I started to tell him that age does have its price, and the little blue pill came into the picture.

Adam is young, he’s 24 years old, looks even younger. I was very shocked when he told me he was using Viagra. I didn’t want to go into details, maybe he had a problem, maybe this sweet guy is really impotent. Many films ran in my head now: him sad in bed with a lovely girl, him talking to his doctor about it, him being depressed and can’t get girls because of his problem. Really a whole Hallmark of pictures. But then Adam told me his story…

He said he was gay, and that he goes to those saunas and darkrooms and mostly it ends in an orgy. He takes Viagra just to make what he has (and he said he has a lot..) last longer, so he could really enjoy himself for hours.

I never knew there was such a scene of young gays popping Viagra and having orgies! I felt so old, miles away from this kind of hedonistic way of life. Adam kissed me and told me I look happy and satisfied. We stayed there on the couch watching TV, touching each other’s bodies. His skin was less soft than I’ve imagined.

He gave me his number, said I could join him and his friends if I wanted, ‘maybe bring Louis as well’. I laughed. I imagined Louis and Adam give each other a Viagra on the tongue.

Maybe it’s not such a bad idea after all.

Love,

Ella

You thought that taking Viagra is fun and games? You were right

But there are rules, and those rules must be followed, because after all Viagra, as any other ED pill (Levitra, Cialis etc) – is a medicament. You need to store it correctly, take it correctly, be well sensitive to your body and to any side effect that may appear. You must not mix it with any other ED pill, nor take more than once a day. In case you use other medication, you should check first the table of Viagra contradications.

Please do not mix alcohol with Viagra or with any other ED pill! You may have a glass of wine but don’t get too drunk and happy, or it may end up like my story of the weekend…I won’t tell you the really bad details, but alcohol affects the body – and that includes the mind – pretty hard if you mix it with Viagra. Louis took the pill and within two hours drank almost a bottle of wine. Boy, was he DUMB for the rest of the night!! I could forget about sex, the guy was barely awake.

So, use ED pills, they are great, but use them wisely!!

Now that my husband gave me the job of finding him the best pill against his impotence, I started to read a lot of material. A lot of what i read online is unreliable content, made in order to sell something. I am not blind so i take care to check the source of the things I read: How does the website looks like, does it sell ED pills or other products, and on what does it base its conclusions.

I must say it is a hard job Louis gave me. I’m sure the first good answer would be:

Each man must find the best ED pill that suits best his needs.

I read some comparing tables (I will upload one myself to this website soon) – those are tables that compare the ED pills that are today on the market. So far I checked: Viagra Pfizer, Cialis Lilly, Levitra Bayer, Viagra soft tabs, Daily Cialis, Cialis soft tabs.

I make this check mainly for my husband, Louis, but my result will interest most of my readers, I’m sure. Here’s what I got so far:

How much time before the sex do you must take the pill? Viagra should be taken 30 minutes before the sex, at least. My husband took it always on an empty belly and then 30 minutes were enough. Some men may require 60 minutes. Cialis and Levitra require 60 minutes at least. With Daily Cialis there are two possible dose: 2.5mg and 5mg, and since you take it daily you’re pretty much ready anytime, anywhere. The soft tabs reduces the time of the medication to take effect: Viagra soft tabs starts to work after 20 minutes, Cialis soft tabs after 15.

How long is the duration of the pill’s effect? To make it short and clear: all ED pills, besides Cialis, last for about 4-5 hours (Viagra 4, Levitra 5). The soft tabs last slightly longer sometimes, depends on the specific pill (they are all generic, Pfizer doesn’t make soft tabs, nor does Eli Lilly).

What are the limitations of taking the pill? Here I must say that the list of drugs that you should not combine with any PDE5 pill (ED pills) is rather long. I will post it here on my sidebar for your convenience. My husband does not use any other pill, but as I understood all the PDE5 pills are not recommended for use in combination with high blood pressure pills (but please see the full list and consult your doctor about any medication you may use).

What are the side effects of the pill? Most pills specify similar side effects that are common and not dangerous, such as headaches, runny nose and back pain. I read that the soft tabs, both Viagra soft tabs and Cialis soft tabs, should have less side effects. The Daily Cialis should also have much less side effects, because the daily dose is much smaller.

Alright! Now that we are slightly smarter, do the math yourself. As i told my husband, I guess in the next few weeks we’ll be experimenting with those pills until we figure out what is the best ED pill for us. It is also a couple thing, you must remember

Love,

Ella

After the really bad weekend I was having, this week actually started quite good. Louis got a new pack of Viagra pills (the online pharmacy was too slow for him – it takes them a few days to deliver) so we were both relaxed. At work I had a chat with Eddie, and I told him I feel like I share Louis with the pill. Like Viagra was his second wife, or maybe even the first! Eddie found it amusing, but didn’t let me feel dumb. He said it is only the beginning, we will find the correct way to use the pill. Not only what Pfizer says, but also how it feels right for us to use Viagra.

I love talking to Eddie, he made the right point: we should learn how to use it the way we feel is good for us, for our marriage life, for our sex life. I know that when Eddie takes the pill when he’s alone in the bathroom it makes me feel lonely. I prefer he takes it with an open door. Am i jealous in the relationship he has with the little blue pill? Or am I trying to control it? Am I scared of Louis get obsessed or addicted to Viagra? I guess I can answer Yes to all those questions, but I’m also aware of that and THAT makes the whole difference.

Louis told me his doctor also mentioned a daily ED pill. It’s not Viagra, Louis wasn’t sure what it was, but I’ll check this out. The doctor said that perhaps it was better in the case of daily sex, so we don’t have to plan when we are having sex. On the other hand, it means Louis will be taken a pill a day. I plan to investigate further about this daily Viagra ED pill, and I’ll update here later.

Love,

Ella
