Hi there.

Thank you very much for asking your question here.

As an insulin dependant diabetic you are bound to suffer from erectile dysfunction. It would be very surprising if you did not. This is manageable. You can have good erections again. I do not know what penecra/edicra is but since its not working it hardly matters.

What you need is Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) and Cialis 20 mg. The TRT will reduce your insulin requirements and improve your libido and erections. It will also help reduce risk of premature death. The Cialis will improve your erections somewhat.

If this combination does not allow you to have full intercourse then stay on the TRT but replace the Cialis with penile injection with something like Caverject. This will work and you will be like a new man.

Good luck and thanks again.
