"I started the 30 mg Viagra last evening for Raynaud's, which causes blood vessels in certain areas to be constricted. In my case, hands and feet. I am a female and had to wait nearly a week to get it approved by my insurance, even after my PCP stated it wasn't for ED. I had a severe headache about 20 minutes after, followed by GERD and muscle pain. The headache resolved in an hour. I went to sleep with really tender breasts that still hurt the next day. I felt a bit flushed all over and had color to my cheeks for about an hour. One dose was too soon to tell if it will work for my condition, but I do not think I will take it again."

Sildenafil for Erectile Dysfunction "I am 68 and had begun to have inconsistent erections or would lose it during intercourse. My wife and I decided to bring it up with my doctor who prescribed Viagra. It has worked very well. I take it an hour after dinner. Within an hour I am ready to go with rock-hard erections. I am also able to last longer. My wife has loved it. Perhaps the best sex of our lives, even after having 5 children! Side effects have been minimal and seem to be subsiding from a little flushing, stuffy nose, and slight headache."
