ED2

This is a follow-up on my post on June 4th.
Two weeks have past since I became concerned about my state of being (ED).  Not much have changed, I'm not cycling except for a couple of commutes to work.  I jokingly describe my situation as like a bicycle tire with a fast leak, you can pump it up, and the tire will stay in riding condition for about 10 minutes, so if you want to use it, you need to pump up the tire, and ride hard and fast to get to where you're going.  Yesterday (6/17) was the first time in the last two weeks, where I don't feel as if I'm losing "air" quickly.  Although I'm still not as sensitive and as easily aroused as before.  I'm still remarkably calm about this situation considering that I LOVE sex.  Still have not felt compelled to use the Viagra sample that I was given two weeks ago. Will continue to monitor the situation, and update if anything pops up.

ED

This Saturday (June 2, 2012) is the first time I can remember where "morning wood" did not happened.  If it did happen before it was never a concern.  It was noticeable now, because I've notice that I'm not as hard as I used to be.  If my "tire" pressure was supposed to be at 35psi, it has been at around 32psi for the last year or so, and last week it felt like it was at 25psi or something.
I'm alarmed about this development, but I'm not freaking out about it YET.  I'm thinking this is probably due to the heavy cycling that I've been doing in 2012 (I've put in almost 500 miles in the last 5 months, having not done too much cycling before that).  This means that I will lay off the cycling for now, except for the short bike ride to work (20 minutes each way), and monitor the situation.
Surprisingly, I'm not as freaked out as I thought I might be. This is probably because I think that this is a temporary condition.  If this situation doesn't resolve itself in a month, I won't be laughing about it then.  I'm also surprised that I shared this information with my friends pretty easily, no embarrassment or shame or anything.  We'll have to see where this takes us.
