#114Well. too sad I can't take it. It gives me terrible heartburn (an acute stomach pain, not a heart related condition) that only partially responds to anti-acids such as Alka Seltzer. Also, extremelly stuffy nose, to the point where basically I need to breath by the mouth. And the red eyes, eyes as red as if had just smoke the biggest and strongest joint ever. Yes, I tried to use it recreationally a few times. It is no…

> Who knows what to believe. This may be a sincere statement, but I'm not sure it's a helpful one. What data do we have? A 2:1 advantage in published studies that it does help. Since there is no such thing in science as absolute proof of anything, these are pretty good odds. Certainly more work will be done in the future to try to replicate the results and figure out the one negative outcome. But until then, we canno…

#117> The OxHARP trial was a meticulously designed double-blind, placebo-controlled study involving 75 participants who had experienced a minor stroke and showed signs of mild to moderate small vessel disease. Each participant received sildenafil, a placebo, and cilostazol (a similar drug) over three-week periods in a randomised order. I feel like dudes will know if they got Viagra or not? It doesn't seem like cilostazol…
Viagra doesn't "make" you hard, you still need sexual stimulus. I've taken it and then the sexual opportunity fell through, so I went back to coding or whatever, and I didn't notice anything different.
It definitely does.
> you still need sexual stimulus.
Not really, or to a much lesser extent.

#119I always wonder if there is a circular logic flaw in survey studies of recreation and dementia: could it be that the folks who are chasing Viagra or running marathons don't get dementia, because the ones with dementia don't pursue these activities?
