Shrinking Penis

I have posted here before, but I feel that I must be persistent.  I am 29 years old, and have been impotent for about 2 years now.  2 years ago, I was absolutely fine.  I could have sex as many times as I wanted to.  3 times a night would be no problem.  I woke up with erections, and if I didn't have sex I would masturbate in the morning and before I went to bed.  

It is a different story now however.  No morning wood.  No libido.  If I am able to get an erection it doesn't last long.  Visual stimuli has no effect, I have to use my hand and that doesn't work very well.  When flacid, my penis is smaller now.  The skin feels different--less sensitive.  I see veins where I couldn't see any before.  When I walk around, it feels like I don't even have a penis anymore.  It feels like nothing is there.  As a result of this I have lost my girlfriend, my confidence in life, and I think I am losing my mind.  Oral drugs don't help.  

I've been to urologists at an ivy leage teaching hospital. He basically said 'that's life' and showed me penis pumps.  I really don't know why I am typing this message, as I don't think there is anything anyone can really do.  I am beyond the point of losing hope.  I quite honestly do not want to live like this anymore.  

My only questions are:
a.  Why & how did this happen?
b.  Is there any way to fix it?

If you know a doctor, please forward this to him/her because I really need help.  Thank you.

Stop watching porn.... PERIOD, you've been doing it too much, thats why nothing visual stimulates it anymore, take a break from and sexual activites for 3 months, do nothing, no stimulating your **** or looking at sexual images/videos, after 90 days of non stop of that, get a girlfriend and she will make you harder than wood

After research for another problem, Doctors told me I had a pituitary gland Tumor. Long story short, i take Cabergoline. It definetly is working because now i think about sex often and my shrinking penis is growing back to its original size, I **** you not! The day after i take Cabergoline my testicles seem a little sore but i find it amusing cuz i know it is working. Cabergoline is reducing my Prolactin levels which started out at 1700 and rapidly dropped to 30 the Doc says with increasing Testosterone.

hey guys have you read this one : http://www.medhelp.org/posts/Mens-Health/Shrinking-Penis-Recovery/show/1619995

I'm pretty sure this is the cause but it's just damn hard to find  a PT who specialises in both pelvic region and trigger points. I called one but she said she doesn't do both together as she only does dry needling.
