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.

they say a penis cannot shrink but 2 years ago mine measured 6.5 to  7 inches  erect now it measure 3.5 inches erect I think you will agree that's quite a difference and I don't know if it will shrink any more if  it shrunk that much in 2 years in the next 2 years it could be down to nothing what then

I'm 23 years old and 80 kg, 177 cm in hight, in the past 2 years i started noticing that my penis has been constantly getting smaller i use to have total lenth of 26 cm but now it hardly reaches the 18 cm, i know that my condition is caused by smoking as i've been smoking since i was 13.
I would like to know if there is any way to recover from this, and yes i quit smoking.
