One of the pharmaceutical companies did a study with their BP medication against vitamin D and calcium, and the supplements were just as effective. Of course they kept this a secret, but I heard it from an employee.
L-arginine, flax seed oil, avoiding caffeine, Metamucil, vitamin D and calcium, plus walking for exercise are all healthier ways to control your blood pressure. Try them and get off the medication. If you monitor your BP, I am sure it will stay down.
Please don't stop taking a medication like that without asking your doctor about it. Even if you stop against their advice, they can tell you whether it's safe to stop suddenly or what procedures to follow to get off it.
Bystolic has not been shown to cause ED in studies, but there apparently have been some spontaneous, voluntary reports of it happening. This means that once it went to market, people taking it reported various side effects, including ED, but they were rare and it wasn't in the context of a controlled study. So it's technically possible the the bystolic is your issue. You should talk to your doctor about it. They might try changing you to another med, since even the ones who more commonly cause ED don't cause it in every single person, so one of those might be right for you.
Anxiety could be a problem as well. It might be your only problem, or could be working with the bystolic to cause issues. If you can't afford to go to a therapist until you get your insurance, try looking up ways to reduce anxiety in sexual situations, and try to apply those for the time being.
Hi Mike, First have you googled Bystolic and erectile dysfunction, if not you should makes for some intresting reading for you and ED.
Have a read up on cayenne pepper and HBP, they say it equals out blood pressure out, then you just stay on that, google cayennepepper( one wrod) for blood pressure, it will also clean out any plaque from your blood and look after your prostate, and it help your ED, all from one thing, cant be that bad can it.
If not why dont goole natural ways to reduce HBP, there lots of infomation there on that.
Hope this helps.
Good Luck
Mike, not saying you do this at_all but it may be a factor worth exploring for *anyone* who is experiencing ED; good luck. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSF82AwSDiU
