Erik is only a little over a month post treatments, but will he ever get his libido back? I am needing some intimacy. I have been so patient through his treatments, but even the mention of sex, seems to turn him off. There used to be a time that I had to literally fight him off with a stick. I am missing my "husband" and tired of just dealing with a "patient". I know I am sounding selfish, but I cant hardly hold it together anymore, I cry every time I even see something romantic on tv. AAAKKK is there any hope?
