I take Ranitidine daily, and have done so for 20 years. I also have an active sex life. I do take Viagra also, but that's to conteract the effects of being 78 - nothingto do with Ranitidine.

Sorry, I took ranitidine for years, without having any problems with ED.

Further to my message yesterday, I ought to assure Members that my sex partner is a 24-year-old girl.

It may be relevant to these pages in general, to say that I introduced her to the "Simon" series some time back, and she finds my parallel universe of neutered boys totally fascinating. To the extent that she has created an imaginary attendant "Carlo" who is allowed to watch us making love, and afterwards to bring us wine. Carlo has blue eyes, shoulder-length londe hair, a cherub's penis and no balls or scrotum. We pretend we had Carlo neutered when he showed signs of becoming a "big boy".
