Hi!
Yesterday here (http://diabeticdietsnews.com/diabetes-reproductive-system-and-sexual-potency/) I read that All men, with or without diabetes, experience difficulties in achieving an erection at some time in their lives
Oh My God! I'm nervous: my husband has Diabetes Type 2.
Please, comment this post;)

There are lots of things, both physical and emotional, that can potentially affect this part of the body...

If you have diabetes, one of the possible long-term complications is damage to the small blood vessels. You have small blood vessels in your eyes, kidneys, toes, fingers and (you've guessed it) your penis.

Note the words 'potential' complications. It is not a given. If your husband keeps his blood glucose control tight then his chances of developing complications of any kind are minimised. If you can persuade him to do so, perhaps he can join this place? Keeping his blood glucose in check is a great way to improve his lot in every way and (by doing so) improve your lot too :)

Careful how you market the idea, though - emotional stress is likely to cause the very problem you are trying to avoid and if you get too worked up about a future that might never happen then you'll make it a reality here and now due to the mental state.
