    Lost interest...help?

    I've read some posts that indicate difficulty with "getting" up or "staying" up, and there are pills for that, we all know. But I'm having issues with "interest".

    I've always enjoyed a very healthy and active sex life, but lately I find myself not really caring one way or the other . My DW is starting to look at me funny because I used to chase her all over the house...all the time. (well, until I caught her )

    Is this normal?

    The pills are able to help with the circulatory issues that cause ED but not the neurological causes, so with MS they aren't always, and entirely effective. But well worth trying.

    As for interest, its possible the physical difficulties create an unwillingness to "work" at something that was always natural and easy. So you stop trying or lose interest. Over time, they can amount to the same thing.

    Its a major factor in marital challenges for men with MS, in my case perhaps the biggest. While I can understand what is happening, and can't claim that I've be successful at overcoming it, you can't give up. Yes for her sake but also for yours.

        Have you had your testosterone levels checked? Sometimes a periodic shot can increase your desire. Check with Dr.
