Welcome back @Akiyah !! Any time one of us hasn’t posted in over a month, I believe there is concern. I’m glad you are doing fairly well.
Maybe you can be an example to @Exsexgod that some recovery can take place with the slow passage of time. It took you two years, he is only one year in.
Your medical background supports my theory that PFS hits the best and brightest among us. You are obviously smart enough to reach the top of your profession, and you led a physically active lifestyle. We all seem to have this in common. Can you make any medical supposition from these facts?
Ex.: “The genes or DNA of overachievers are more likely to be those attacked by finasteride.” Maybe we can find an angle the researchers have missed.
This has been my own main debilitating side effect. I was two-thirds through writing a book, and fear I’ll never get back to it.
PFS seems to steal away the very pleasures we treasure most. The fog on my mind, the exhaustion that prohibits most physical activities…I miss that more than my sexual losses. Exsexgod is quite similar. You, Akiyah, lost your medical position which you worked so hard towards.
We know we are tormented and diseased by PFS, because we know what we are missing. Perhaps the masses who don’t even recognize their PFS symptoms simply…had less to lose? Less to notice, anyways.
I’ll leave this here, and look forward to your opinions. Jim
