flomax / orgasm

[Michael goldsholl]

I hate this drug.
I've been on flowmax for an admittedly short period of time 10 days and i will tell yo that many of my major joints are very inflamed.. I have had a knee brace on my left leg and barely able to walk. My neck has been in spasm and
i also have joint pain there as well. Thumbs down on Flowmax. Im going to send my 130 dollar bottle back to my dr and say give it to someone who cant afford it.

I'm 46. Was diagnosed enlarged prostrate- was peeing about 35 times per day. Doctor put me on 28 days of Cipro, and a short time later FLOMAX. Have been taking it (Flomax) for 2 weeks It does help, however, I find I have less strength in the weight room/ running. Also some lower back pain and generally a little tired. First time I ejaculated it was almost dry; however, this has improved over the past two weeks- though still not quite normal.
My wife and I enjoy wine; however, since starting this I have been avoiding alcohol. Is there a problem taking Flomax and drinking on the weekend (say 4-5 glasses on wine)? Also has anybody had any libdo problems (long term with this), and finally, if you have been takig it long term, have you been able to avoid surgery?
Thanks

got drunk one night on a flavored rum---even fell out of bed---about three in the morning I couldn't pee--had to go to the hospital to be cathatered---was removed and inserted three time in a week---last time it was removed --everything worked again. I have noticed, after drinking 2 manhattens on the weekend my stream is a lot slower until morning. Now i'm really careful on how much I drink in the evening

has anybody lost the ability to orgasm,while on flomax. My doctor increased my dosage to 2 pills per day, and have had a problem having an orgasm and ejaculating. I still can get a rise and can make my wife happy but cannot have an orgasm---been on this stuff for about 6 years now
