A member asked:

I have enlarge prostate i take tab for bp daily (telma40) 4 mnths back i was detected diabetic no medicin under control i now hv ed suggestions?

Prostate etc.: Please see a Urologist about your prostate and erectile dysfunction! Your information is not uncommon in men your age. If you were "detected" to have diabetes I am surprised that you were not given any medication for it. Metformin is a common first prescribed medicine for early diabetes and many stores provide it at no cost!
