Diabetes affects many functions... from circulation, nerves, pituitary gland, hormone production and blood pressure (blood pressure meds are a cause of impotence in men, too) ... they all contribute to permanent damage to sexual organs and desire that cannot be treated with viagra or TLC.

True.

So, a dynamic duo increases the focusing on other pleasures which can be shared--such as neck, shoulder, back, hand rubs etc.

I knew an MD and wife who had a decent sex life. But he said that when he was older, taking walks holding her hand was a pleasureable to him as the best sex--and they'd actually had good sex persistently.
