Suggest Treatment For Erectile Dysfunction

I have E.D. My neurologist says it is not caused by my enlarged prostate. My cadriologist says the medication (Metropol) might be the cause. Is is possible my Corpus Cavernosum is some how blocked from receiving blood to engorge my penis. I have tried Levitra and it does not work. I want to try Viagra but my cardiologist suggested not to. I am 75 years old, in fairly good health,and I wan to have sex.
