> It's a difficult question. I was going to jump in yesterday, but I hoped someone better would come along. First off, exercise if you don't right now. Improves blood flow and testosterone. I can't remember effexor, but you are right, the other two shouldn't necessarily cause that. If it's really a problem, you may have to go to a urologist. There's some kind of postage stamp test where they put tearway tape on you at night, and if it breaks, they know you have normal nighttime erections. If a doc determines everything normal is working medically, then it could be a partner problem (real trick subject here, I'm older than you. I do great with my partner, rarely bother without anymore) I take a similiar med combo to you, so it really could be a side effect that is less common. Don't know what else to say really except don't let it become a psychological hangup and self fullfilling prophecy. hang in there.

> James KThanks for both responses. Interesting about clonaz being the culprit....
I went to my primary doc and he gave me a blood test and all three numbers related to impo/libido were done (testosterone, etc, etc) and everything was in range. I went to a urologist and he said right off it was the meds, no matter if they say low sexual problems. He asked if I get an erection with viagra and he said since I do, that means normal function....
I dont know where to find stamps where they arent like the new ones (sticky already and single..not like on the roll and person licks stamps.ANY SUGGESTIONS?
P.S. What does sleeping erection have to do with impotence?
