Jim Burton of Fresno, California. Age: 59

My name is Jim, I?m 59, and I?m a very satisfied Viagra user. I?ve been using it for about a month now, and I tell you, I can?t remember ever having a month this good. I?ve been enjoying better sex with my wife than I can remember as well. And I don?t think we?ve ever made love this frequently, even when we were in our 30s.

I?ve been married for over 25 years now, and it?s been great. My beautiful wife, Deborah, has always been supportive of me in everything I?ve done. But lately I feel like she?s been unhappy. Frankly I was worried about our relationship. We haven?t been making love very often at all for a number of years now. We?re both stressed out, and our sex drives aren?t the same as they used to be? at least I can speak for myself. With us both involved in hectic careers, it?s been very difficult for us to find time for one another. The kids are a real handful as well ? we have 3 children, and though they are past the age of diapers and babysitters, they are getting to that age where they need rides everywhere and help with homework and a lot of attention. Loving just hasn?t been on our minds much these days.

A couple of years ago I actually started having trouble performing in bed. Sometimes it was fine, but sometimes I just couldn?t get or maintain a strong enough erection. I had no idea what was going on, but we both chalked it up to stress and would call it a night. I?d read that stress can be a real sex-drive killer, and I didn?t doubt it. Things kind of leveled off after that, we weren?t making love anymore at all. I was afraid I wouldn?t be able to perform, Deb was afraid she?d upset me. But there was this constant tension and I didn?t like it. Whenever we got into bed, I just didn?t know what to do. I started sleeping in another room for that reason ? I told her she was a bad snorer, but I don?t know if she really bought it. I could tell she was bothered by the whole thing and she knew something was wrong.

But little did I know how much she understood. It was actually her that came to me. One day over breakfast she and I had a discussion about our sex life. She suggested to me that I may be suffering from Erectile Dysfunction. I guess she?d been reading about it and talking to friends about marital problems. I was really uncomfortable at first. I told her she was blowing the whole thing out of proportion, and that there was nothing wrong with me, I was just having trouble getting into the mood. She took that as a cue, and took some time off work to plan a romantic evening for us both. It was beautiful and romantic? but imagined how embarrassed I was when we got to the bedroom and I couldn?t get it up. I felt awful? just awful, like I?d wasted her time. But Deb was very understanding, and in truth I think she was trying to teach me a lesson. I finally admitted it to myself and to my wife that I had a problem that wasn?t going to go away, not even with all the romantic dinners in the world.

I went to the doctor right away and I was prescribed Viagra, a drug I?d heard about many times. I got myself a bottle of 50 mg pills from the pharmacist and went right to work trying one out with dinner. And wow, I couldn?t even finish my meal, I just had to go right away. I experienced a great erection, and some of the best sex of my life. Deborah and I have become closer than ever, and are back to sleeping in one bed. I couldn?t be more grateful for this wonderful drug. Thank you, Viagra.
