The Viagra Chronicles

This week has been full with interesting Viagra news.

Tesco Slammed Over Cheap Viagra By Top Liverpool Doctor

First I must say this doctor is a brave woman. First off, she wouldn’t mind being the one who delivers you the bad news. But perhaps as a doctor she’s used to this. But second, and most important; she’s not afraid to stand in front of such a huge corporation like Tesco. She says that the fact that Tesco sells Viagra is a risk to men’s health.
So why is Tesco risking men’s health?
Dr. Gallard says:

I am very concerned that if men start buying Viagra from supermarkets, we could see increased numbers of cases of Cardiovascular Disease and Diabetes going undetected.
There is also potential for abuse by customers, who could purchase from multiple stores without clear safeguarding measures.

And what’s the health risk? Well, read on, this is actually a very bothering piece of news regarding the little blue pill:

Erectile dysfunction is often an early warning sign of potential CVD and Diabetes problems, and by simply masking the problem with Viagra, they are just ignoring what could be a potentially fatal issue

This got me really worried. Since my husband is too busy lately, I called his doctor and made sure he didn’t miss his annual tests. I actually stressed the fact that he was using Viagra for the last couple of years, and then the doctor added some tests for him!
This is important! Check your body – blood and heart – if you are using Viagra. Don’t let the good vibes of the blue pill blind you. Viagra saves your sex life, but you only get to have sex life when you’re…alive. So take care of your body.

Viagra Won’t Work For You, Low Testosterone Men Warned

You had to think those two problems – low testosterone and erectile dysfunction – have something to do with each other. It appears that 1 out of 5 men with erectile dysfunction have low testosterone levels, which may be a sign for other diseases which better be treated and not ignored:

Low testosterone is linked to increased risk of mortality from diabetes and cardiovascular events so diagnosing it is very important in preventing those diseases.

Bottom line, check your testosterone levels. If it’s low, get from your doctor a testosterone replacement, which will defend your body from getting the really dangerous diabetes or cardiovascular events. Then, and only then, if it’s still won’t stand, get the Viagra.

Here’s an illustration of what testosterone is responsible for in your body:

That’s it for today, I hope your read those important news! Your body is all you’ve got, so take care!
