:stop Antihystamines, Ginsing, and Smitty

Since last summer, I had been taking Benadryl-D for my allergies and sinuses which have been terrible since I had stopped drinking. I basically took the Benadryl-D a minimum of once a day until a few months back when Benadryl-D was no longer available locally. According to the pharmacist at Walgreen's they had pulled it due to, "making a new formula".

Odd.

Anyways, so I then switched to their generic. Which did not work for shit. Then Sudafed. A bit better, still nothing like the Bendryl-D however for handling BOTH allergies and sinuses.

Anyway.. sometime near the end of last year I started noticing the occasional "performance" issue when having sex. Sometimes Mr Happy would not make an appearance. Other times I would lose the hardon in the middle of sex, or some other variant of the same fun.

At 34 (now, 33 then) I should not have these issues. Since I do not drink, and have not for 2 years, I do not get whiskey dick anymore. So I had caught a thread on GFY by Smitty talking about trying Ginsing, Siberian Root. I followed the Smitty's instructions, and TADA. Back to normal. 4-5 times a day, back to back, and everything working magically.

Until I had to switch off the Benadryl-D. Then all of the issues came back, and even worse where I would not even get anything out of Mr Happy. Sometimes little more than a halfsie.

I thought about Viagra, and some of the other shit.

So doing some reading and research. I cut out the Antihystamines. Bought a treadmill to get more blood flowing. Within 2-3 weeks... BAM everything back to normal. Sweet justice.

I also have cut out the Ginsing. That shit would make my appetite like a fucking madman. I am normally not all that hungry, and eat a few meals a day. But when on the ginsing, I was ALWAYS fucking hungry.

Back in da saddle baby.
