Dying

He had the new robot aided surgery and the after hasn't been fun for him and his wife.
Only just now, 3 years later can he get an erection with just the phizer rizer (blue pill). Previously, he had to take the blue pill plus inject some other drug directly into the old fella. Can you imagine just how much guts that takes, inject directly into the penis!!!
Needless to say, there sex life wasn't great the past three years but is improving now.Good to hear.
As someone who is subject to ED and has tried Viagra, it bloody works! Problem is I get a migraine - really bad one - 36 hours later. Who knows what else its doing to my cardiovascular system? The fine balance between the anxiety of not performing (a delightful spiral of its own) and going through physical pain and possibly long-term detrimental effects.
After I do my next echocardio stress test on Monday I'll be talking to the cardiologist about Cialis just to give it a try.
He's also throwing terms at me likee Patent foramen ovale to explain why I get vascular backlash after exercise or dick meds. Not what I pictured doing in my early 40s.
What a world!

@Wairau @Rembrandt try this one?

If you’re into keeping, fit, healthy and strong this is my take on it. After 20 years in the fitness industry working as a personal trainer I’ve learnt a thing or two, what to do and definitely what not to do.

Did you watch Game Changers on Netflix? They got 3 men to eat a plant based diet and measured the amount and length of erections. Whilst not exactly scientifically rigorous they found much better erections after ditching the meat. Kind of makes sense as animal products often lead to narrowing arteries which can restrict blood flow.

@chimoaus what do people eat when they ditch meat....
Alot more veges. Meat is not bad for people. -

Have not seen it, but heard that.
Also seen advice that says it's more about reducing cholesterol than anything, which plants help with.

A mate trolled a vegan colleague about drinking beer, and the exploitation of yeast. You know they breed billions of tiny yeast organisms, hold them in pens, and then unleash them on sweet wort just to watch them die and then filter them out of the beer. How can anyone in good conscience drink the product of their labours?
Some funny stuff right there.

@nzzp Sort of funny but it’s beer mate. Don’t be messing with my head about beer

Coming back from the US this week, NZ is absolutely blessed with high quality beer. We live in paradise people, don't sneeze at it.

Christ on a bike, big Sam may have trouble rising to the occasion, but the size of your balls cannot be underestimated.
Not satisfied with being one of the very few Aussies regularly posting on a kiwi rugby forum, you've also admitted to being a bit of a softy.
Full credit to you fella, seriously. A Kirwan moment.

Right so starting this week, the runup to Christmas looks like:
- $800 - echocardio stress test
- $200 - skin cancer removal
- $220 - dermatologist follow up to 2 + maybe a biopsy*
- $???? - fuck knows how much (probably thousands) on an esophageal echocardiogram to see if the hole between my atria is the cause of migraine and other vascular issues.
And the fucked thing is Medicare will cover some of this, but private health won't cover the rest. Fluffybunnies.
*If you get a mole/lesion under your fingernail or toenail, medical types get very nervous and/or excited.

I was having lunch with my MIL today and the topic of smoking came up and how times have changed. She remembered when smoking on a plane was allowed, she then says "Oh I still have the AirNZ handout from 1969"
Anyone else remember those smoking candy sticks as kids? Funny how times change.
Aussies were a little more to the point.

@chimoaus My first flight as a kid was from Hamilton to Christchurch in 1983 to stay with relatives in the school holidays. I remember there was only a curtain separating the non-smoking and smoking sections on the 737. Out of interest I checked, and you could still smoke on domestic Air NZ flights until 1988. 1997 for international flights.
